Liqui-Cel Membrane Contactors for Gas Transfer

  • Liqui-Cel Membrane Contactors are commonly used for gas transfer with water or with fluids that have a similar surface tension to water. They utilize a patented radial flow design and are available in a variety of contactor sizes that are ideal for flow rates between 0.5 – 400 gpm (0.1-91 m3/hr).

    Larger flow rates are easily handled by piping multiple contactors in parallel. If you have low surface tension fluids such as digital inks, coatings, or developer solutions, SuperPhobic® contactors are the best option. If you have smaller flow rates, the MiniModule® and MicroModule® products would be a good fit.

    Liqui-Cel Membrane Contactors are widely used for O2 removal from water as well as CO2 removal from water. They have displaced the vacuum tower, forced draft deaerator, and oxygen scavengers. Liqui-Cel Membrane Contactors come in many sizes that process different flow rates. You simply choose the product size based on your flow rate requirements. Contactors are added in parallel to process flow rates larger than what is listed in the table.
