Hy-WeaveX™ Knitted Wire Mesh Liquid - Liquid Coalescer I Bulk Phase Separation.
The Hy-WeaveX knitted wire mesh liquid-liquid coalescer is engineered specifically for these high-volume, bulk separation challenges. By combining a multi-layered woven wire matrix with gravitational settling, this system delivers continuous phase separation without the high pressure drop or frequent element replacement associated with traditional cartridge housings.
How the Knitted Matrix Works
The core of the system relies on a precision-engineered media pack. As your process emulsion enters the vessel, it passes through a series of dense, crimped layers of knitted wire mesh.
Impingement: Tiny, dispersed droplets suspended in the continuous phase hit the micro-filaments of the mesh pad.
Growth: As more fluid flows through, these trapped droplets slide along the wire filaments, collide with each other, and merge into larger droplets.
Release & Settle: Once the droplets grow large enough that the drag of the fluid can no longer hold them, they release from the matrix.
From there, gravity takes over. The heavy phase drops down while the light phase floats upward, giving you a clean, predictable separation zone.
Material Configurations Tailored to Your Chemistry
No two chemical processing streams are identical, which is why we customize the weave density and material selection for every application. The wire filaments are available in a broad range of metallurgy to prevent corrosion, including:
300 Series Stainless Steel
Monel 400
Nickel 200
Hastelloy C276
Inconel 600
For challenging streams where surface energy is critical, we can co-knit or inter-wind the metal wires with high-performance polymer fibers like Teflon, Kynar, polypropylene, nylon, or polyester. Blending these materials optimizes the wetting properties of the media, forcing the dispersed droplets to coalesce even more efficiently.
