The liquid distributor is an extremely critical internal part of the packed tower, which not only affects the mass transfer efficiency of the packing but also impacts the operating flexibility of the packing.

Liquid distributors are used to evenly distribute a liquid stream over a packed column in order to maximize the efficiency of mass transfer and heat transfer. They are commonly used in chemical and petrochemical plants and are especially important in distillation, absorption, and stripping processes.
