Abstract
A tower packing element for use in towers for distillations, gas absorptions and related mass transfer operations. The base of the element has a surface contour which is generated by the rotation of a two-dimensional curve having reverse curvature through an approximate angle range of from ten to one hundred and eighty degrees around a straight line which lies within the plane of said curve. The base is further provided with slots and depending tongues.

A tower packing element for use in towers for distillations, gas absorptions and related mass transfer operations, comprising a base which has a surface that is generated by the rotation of a continuously progressing two-dimensional curve through an angle of from approximately 10 degrees to approximately 180 degrees around a straight line which lies within the plane of said curve to form a base surface consisting of at least two demi-tori in horizontal sequence, said base being provided with slots and having tongues depending from said base.
