V-tex™ Stripping Technology
V-tex™ strippers achieve higher removal efficiencies than traditional technologies without moving parts or random packings which are prone to fouling.
V-tex™ is used for the stripping of liquors across a range of sectors including pharmaceutical, petrochemical, fine chemical and oil and gas industries.
For steam and air stripping the benefits of using V-tex™ include:
- High efficiencies of removal/stripping, in low and variable stripping gas flows
- Compactness - typically one third to one fifth the size of a packed column for the same performance
- No internals to foul and due to the alignment of the opposed jet nozzle and the intense spray pattern and high velocity droplets in the cyclonic spray chamber is self-cleaning
V-tex™ strippers are used in many applications including the removal of:
 |
Acetone | |
Isopropyl alcohol |
|
Ammonia | |
Kerosene |
|
Amyl acetate | |
Methanol |
|
Amyl alcohol | |
Methyl iso butyl ketone |
|
Aniline | |
Methylene dichloride |
|
Benzene | |
Para-nitrochlorobenzene |
|
Butyl acetate | |
Phenol |
|
Carbon tetrachloride | |
Saturated salt solutions |
|
Chloroform | |
Tert butanol |
|
Dimethyl formamide | |
Tributyl phosphate |
|
