Random Packing has been around since the earliest days of commercial columns. To learn about the three generations of random packing and how they maximize vapor/liquid contact and minimize pressure drop, or to learn more about around-flow or through-flow types of random packing, visit AIChE’s Chemical Engineering for Non-Engineers course, aiche.org/ela110 or Essentials of Chemical Engineering for Operators at aiche.org/ela117.
