Perforated Pipe Liquid Distributor

A Perforated Pipe Liquid Distributor is one of the most basic and common types of liquid distributors used in packed columns (such as distillation, absorption, or stripping towers) to ensure the fluid is evenly spread over the top of the packing material.

The primary function of this distributor is to take a single stream of liquid and divide it into multiple, smaller streams that are uniformly distributed across the column's cross-sectional area. This uniform wetting of the packing is critical for maximizing the mass transfer efficiency of the column.
