Packed Tower Internals

This document discusses various internal components that can be used in packed distillation columns, including packing supports, liquid distributors, and hold-down plates. It describes packing supports and redistributor assemblies that support packing material in the column. It also outlines different types of liquid distributors like trough-type, perforated pipe, and rosette distributors that evenly distribute liquid across the column. Hold-down plates are also mentioned as being particularly useful for low density packing to keep it in place.
