MellapakPlus M452.Y high performance structured packing was test at Fractionation Research, Inc. (FRI) as part of their proprietary device testing program. This is the third type of MellapakPlus to be tested at FRI under this program. M252.Y and M752.Y were also tested.

The data from the M452.Y tests will be presented and compared with the previous data from M252.Y and M752.Y. The data should allow a complete analysis of the MellapakPlus family.

Discussion on the applications of the various types of MellapakPlus will be presented also.
