Q-PAC® Tower Packing

Available in North & South America

Q-PAC® Tower Packing is a cost-effective emission control solution ideal for wet scrubbing and air stripping equipment. It features precisely and evenly spaced bars and rods enabling its drip point technology. This innovative technology makes Q-PAC an ideal choice for efficient mass transfer processes. Using and producing Q-PAC tower packings for industrial processes significantly reduces capital expenditure as well as operation and maintenance costs for manufacturers. MACH Engineering offers high-quality Q-PAC tower packing products at competitive prices.

Q-PAC packing solutions offer a different approach to addressing the demands of tower packing processes. Unlike conventional structured tower packings, Q-PAC stacks into smaller tower diameters and consumes less space while providing greater efficiency. Q-PAC tower packings have lower pressure drop and higher flow rates than older styles of tower packings. They also feature small mist eliminators for removing smaller particles during wet scrubber applications.

Q-PAC tower packings feature a unique bar-and-rod design that allows high flow rates without compromising performance. The patented structure is capable of producing millions of small droplets and expanding the surface area for liquid-gas contact.

Q-PAC tower packings are compatible with an array of chemicals, such as:

  • Saline solutions
  • Corrosive solutions
  • Alkaline solutions

Plastic Q-PAC tower packing has a variety of uses in different sectors and industries, such as water, petroleum, environment, chemical, and coal and gas. Some of its most common applications include:

  • Drinking and potable water treatment
  • Wastewater reclamation
  • Filtration and biological treatment
  • Water purification

Q-PAC tower packing is a reliable solution for a variety of industries, and it comes with numerous benefits:

  • Fouling resistance: Q-PAC has excellent fouling resistance capability thanks to its innovative bar-and-rod design. It also has self-cleaning properties that effectively minimize plugging due to the accumulation of minerals and biological growth, resulting in lower maintenance requirements and reduced downtime.
  • Cost-efficiency: Q-PAC is suitable for high-velocity and high-volume applications, unlike older styles of tower packing. Due to its smaller size, operational and maintenance costs are lower, while productivity is higher.
  • Small footprint: Q-PAC is a compact solution with a small footprint that helps your operation save valuable real estate in a facility. It builds into a small tower dimension, giving you extra space to add more columns and machinery on-site.
  • Scalability: Q-PAC packing products can be retrofitted to older equipment, boosting equipment capacity and reducing the need for a secondary tower.

Pall Rings vs. Q-PAC

Pall Rings and Q-PAC packing are both random packing solutions with numerous benefits. They are suitable for columns of all sizes, and they are highly effective for separation processes. While Pall Rings and Q-PAC have many similarities, they also differ in key ways, with the most obvious being their architecture. 

A Pall Ring has a long, cylindrical shape with crossbars in the middle, dividing its entire circumference into separate radii. Conversely, Q-PAC has a hexagonal shape with multiple horizontal bars divided by one vertical bar in the middle. In terms of performance, the Q-PAC has a lower packing volume than Pall Rings. It also supports smaller tower diameters, mist eliminators and recirculation pumps than Pall Rings and Tri-Packs®.
