<p>A mass-exchange contact device is proposed, comprising: upper and lower flat ring-shaped trays outwardly attached to a column, a sleeve including sidewalls attached to the trays and having windows made therein with bottom edges in the plane of the lower tray, a barbotage unit connected to the top of sleeve and having orifices in its sidewalls, a movable double-acting valve including two upper and lower plates attached to a rod axially disposed therebetween. The top of barbotage unit includes an ascending limiter of valve's movement, the bottom of sleeve includes a descending limiter of the valve's movement. In some embodiments, the barbotage unit is made as a portion of the sleeve. The height of windows preferably is equal to the height of valve. The proposed design significantly improves device operation for a cyclic mode, reliability, durability, reduces its weight and cost, extends its operational range for steam and liquid loads.</p> |
