Metal Chevron Mist Eliminator is a heavy-duty gas-liquid separation device designed for demanding industrial applications with high liquid loads, viscous fluids, or solids-laden gas streams. It consists of a series of precisely formed parallel metal vanes arranged in a zigzag pattern, creating multiple abrupt changes in gas flow direction. As the gas stream navigates the tortuous path, entrained droplets—carried by their own momentum—cannot follow the rapid directional changes and impinge directly onto the vane walls. The captured liquid coalesces and drains downward via gravity through integrated liquid collection pockets or hooks on each vane. This inertial separation mechanism makes it uniquely capable of handling liquid loads up to 10 times higher than wire mesh demisters, and its open structure resists clogging in fouling or scaling service.
