FRP Mist Eliminators

FRP mist eliminators (or demister pads) are installed in FGD scrubbers to capture liquid droplets entrained in the gas stream. These are typically vane- or mesh-type panels made of FRP. Fiberglass Fabricators notes that FRP demister panels provide “easy to install” units with “superior corrosion resistance” compared to metal. In an absorber, the mist eliminator prevents droplet carryover into the chimney, protecting both the environment and downstream equipment.

Key Features

Vane Pack Construction: Series of FRP vanes or mesh layers assembled in a frame.
Corrosion-Resistant: Entire assembly (frames and internals) made of fiberglass, PP or PVC.
Low Pressure Drop: Engineered vane angles minimize gas flow resistance.
Modular Panels: Standard panel sizes fit within the vessel or ductwork.

Benefits

High Efficiency: Removes >99% of liquid entrainment, ensuring clean gas discharge.
Zero Maintenance: No corrosion means no periodic replacement as with steel vane packs.
Compact Design: FRP’s strength allows thin panels; space-effective demisting.

Applications

Installed at the top of wet scrubber towers (before the stack) to eliminate slurry droplets. Also used in any gas-liquid separation stage of FGD (e.g. downstream of venturi scrubbers or spray towers). FRP mist eliminators are ideal for sea-water FGD or lime systems, where stainless steel would fail.

Technical Specifications

Materials: FRP, polypropylene (PP), or PVC. Frames in FRP or stainless steel (316L optional).
Sizes: Panel dimensions up to 4’×10’ or larger as needed; assembled on-site for large areas.

Unique Selling Points

Our FRP demister pads are specially designed for FGD conditions. We ensure all wetted components are FRP/PP to prevent corrosion. Panels are framed in an all-FRP structure with 316SS hardware as required. The result is a demister system that outperforms metal designs in durability and cost over the plant’s lifetime.
