columns give you t h e corrosion resistance of glass plus t h e w o r k i n g strength of steel

This column was designed and built by Pfaudler to handle a scrubbing operation involving a highly cor­ rosive gas. Glassed steel was selected as the material of construction because its resistance to corrosion assures the user of long, if not indefinite, service life. The user also knows that, should his process change in years to come, the almost universal corrosion re­ sistance of Pfaudler glassed steel will probably make this scrubber as desirable for handling the new condi­ tions as it is for the present ones. Pfaudler manufactures both standard and special packed glassed steel columns for fractionation, adsorp­ tion, stripping, absorption, or extraction. Standard diameters are from 2" to 48". Larger diameters can be supplied. Where desired, columns can be furnished to meet performance specifications. To provide the structural strength required for columns, reactors, and other types of process equip­ ment, Pfaudler glass is fused to steel in huge furnaces at temperatures of 1500-1700°F. This high temperature firing locks the glass to the steel and makes it hard and tough. Write for Bulletin 894-T-3, our general catalog on chemical processing equipment.
