Column comprising a base between filler body sections

摘要

The column contains a base (1) between an upper and a lower filler body section (8). With this base, liquid (9) is collected from the upper section in a buffer chamber (3) and collected liquid is distributed onto the lower section (8). Flues (2) serve as passages for a gas transport through the buffer chamber. Outlet openings (6) of the buffer chamber are arranged in vertical walls (20) of the flues and guide members (4) for the liquid to be distributed are arranged ahead of the outlet openings. Each outlet opening and its associated guide member are formed in such a manner that the liquid is incident onto a deflection surface (41) of the guide member as a largely free jet (90) unimpeded by a back pressure. The flue cross-section which is available for the gas transport is decreased by the guide members by at most 20%.
