Abstract
A mist eliminator pack is disclosed which is formed of a plurality of non-planar mist eliminator sheets having first and second opposed and generally parallel edges with integrally formed offset tabs in at least the first edge of the sheets. The pads are dimensioned and positioned to engage an adjacent sheet on one side of their associated sheets, with the tabs being secured to the adjacent sheets by an adhesive, or the like, thereby to define an integral pack of evenly spaced sheets having uniform flow paths between the sheets.

A mist eliminator pack for removing liquid components from a gas stream comprising:
- a plurality of mist eliminator sheets having first and second opposed and generally parallel edges and a non-planar configuration between said edges, said sheets being in substantially parallel alignment with each other;
- at least said first edge of each sheet having a plurality of offset tabs integrally formed therein positioned and dimensioned to engage an adjacent sheet on one side thereof;
- said tabs on each sheet being longitudinally offset from the tabs on sheets adjacent thereto, said offset tabs being generally L-shaped, each tab having a first leg extending generally perpendicularly to its associated edge and a second leg extending at right angles to the first leg and parallel to its associated sheet edge;
- and said second legs of said tabs being secured to the first edge of the adjacent sheet on said one side thereof thereby to define an integral pack of evenly spaced sheets to define uniform flow paths between the sheets.
A mist eliminator pack for removing liquid components from a gas stream comprising a plurality of mist eliminator sheets having complementary non-planar configurations with each sheet having first and second parallel spaced edge portions;
- the first edge portion of each sheet having a plurality of generally L-shaped spacing and reenforcing tabs formed therein each including a first leg extending perpendicularly away from its associated edge and a second leg extending perpendicularly from the first leg and parallel to its associated edge, said second leg of said tabs contacting and being secured to the first edge of an adjacent sheet, and the tabs on each sheet being longitudinally offset along their respective sheets with respect to the tabs of adjacent sheets whereby said sheets form an integral pack of evenly spaced sheets to define uniform flow paths between the sheets.
