In what ranges and operating conditions are they suitable for use? The concept of hypergravity doesn’t seem to have much application in distillation here
Based on the principle of enhanced mass transfer, the hypergravity bed can significantly improve the efficiency of mass transfer in distillation compared to traditional distillation towers. This helps to reduce the height of the entire installation; in other words, under the same operating conditions, the hypergravity bed requires much less space, which is one of its biggest advantages at present
