In a Baffle Column, liquid flows from one baffle to another. Vapor flows upward through the baffle openings and comes into contact with the liquid. Mass transfer is enhanced by the atomization of the liquid shower by the vapor flow. To learn more about different baffles used in the distillation process and their resistance to fouling, please visit AIChE’s Distillation in Practice course, aiche.org/ela112
