Previously, when filling the packing in factories, hammers were used to strike the tower walls in order to create vibrations that would help compact the packing. However, this method of filling is not effective; friction still occurs between the packing elements, resulting in dust being generated from that friction. I came across online a filling method that uses the Storm filling technology from the German company Carbotech. This technique allows for an increase in filling volume of over 5% compared to conventional filling methods; moreover, the filler material is compacted tightly, with no wear between the particles, and the system can be used continuously for 8–10 years. The advantages of this filling method are evident. I wonder if anyone is familiar with this technology – let’s share our insights.
The filler density is specified by the process requirements; it’s generally not based on the loose, natural pile state?
If piled loosely, having both activated carbon and molecular sieve as fillers in one tower can lead to mixing, and poor adsorption performance results when they mix together

It’s usually compaction; I’ve heard of it for the first time. Learned* it
