China Manufacturer Directory >>Mist Collectors

Mist collectors, or mist eliminators, are designed to remove mist from gas streams. These devices combine a large surface area in a small volume in order to collect liquid without substantially impeding gas flow. Unlike filters, which hold particles indefinitely, mist eliminators merge fine particles and allow the liquid to drain away.

Mist eliminators come in many forms, including water mist eliminators (also known as demisters or mist collectors) and oil mist eliminators (also known as oil mist collectors, coolant mist collectors, mist separators). Entrainment, the droplets of mist carried away in gas or air, is trapped in a water mist eliminator thus allowing the overhead vapor to be clean and liberated of any mist. Oil mist eliminators are designed to cleanse smoke, solvent, machine fluid or other types of oily mists for the respiratory and skin health of personnel in the area. Filtration units trap large droplets of these fluids and stop them from being released into the air.

Mist collectors are useful for many reasons. Their use improves product purity, reduces operating costs, and minimizes air pollution and downstream corrosion. Mist collectors can also help recover valuable liquids and increase throughput. Many specifications and features are available on mist collectors to further enhance their capabilities for various applications.
