K2 Teller Rosette Ring (2K): High-Efficiency Gas Scrubber Packing

Product Highlight: The K2 (often called "2K") Teller Rosette Ring delivers 95% void fraction with a packing factor of just 11 m⁻¹. Its spiked outer ribs eliminate liquid flow dead zones, delivering longer gas-liquid contact time and 40-50% lower pressure drop than conventional random packings [4,1](@ref).

1. What Is the K2 (2K) Teller Rosette Ring?

The K2 Teller Rosette Ring—also referred to as "2K" by many customers—was originally developed by A.J. Teller in the United States in 1954. It is a proprietary random tower packing constructed from many small rings arranged radially into a large flattened spherical body, resembling a helical spring wound end-to-end [4,5](@ref).

The defining feature of the K2 variant is its spiked outer main ribs: small convex points are distributed evenly along the outer circumference. These spikes increase the effective wetting area and prevent any dead corners in downward liquid flow, significantly boosting mass transfer efficiency [2,5](@ref).

2. Technical Specifications of K2 (2K)

The K2 Teller Rosette Ring has a nominal diameter of 73 mm (≈ 3 inches). Market variants are also supplied at 76-78 mm with slightly different bulk numbers; the data below follows the most widely referenced 2K specification [4,5,9](@ref):

Parameter K2 (2K) Value
Nominal Size 73 mm (3 inch)
Surface Area 28 m²/m³
Void Fraction 95%
Packing Factor 11 m⁻¹
Bulk Number ~6,600 pcs/m³
Bulk Density ~56 kg/m³

Data source: manufacturer technical datasheets [4,9](@ref). Variants at 76-78 mm report a bulk number of ~6,500 pcs/m³ and surface area of ~128 m²/m³ [5,7](@ref).

3. Key Performance Advantages

Why K2 Outperforms Conventional Random Packings

  • High Free Volume (95%): The open radial structure minimizes gas flow restriction and resists fouling even with dirty inlet gas [4,2](@ref).
  • Low Pressure Drop: 40-50% lower than Pall rings or saddle rings at equivalent capacity—delivering measurable energy savings [1](@ref).
  • No Flow Dead Zones: The spiked outer ribs force liquid to spread continuously across the entire packing bed, maximizing effective wetting area [2,5](@ref).
  • High Liquid Holdup: The numerous gaps between radial rings retain more liquid, extending gas-liquid contact time and improving mass transfer efficiency [2,4](@ref).
  • Lightweight: At ~56 kg/m³ bulk density, K2 is easy to handle and install, reducing structural load on the tower [4](@ref).

4. Material Options & Temperature Limits

K2 Teller Rosette Rings are available in a full range of thermoplastic materials. Select based on your process temperature and chemical environment [6](@ref):

Material Density (g/cm³) Max Temp (°C) Typical Service
PP (Polypropylene) 0.89 - 0.91 100 General scrubbing
RPP (Reinforced PP) 1.1 - 1.2 120 Higher-temp organics
PVC 1.32 - 1.44 60 Low-temp acid gas
CPVC 1.50 - 1.54 90 Hot acid gas removal
PVDF (Kynar) 1.75 - 1.78 150 Chlorine, HF, harsh solvents

Overall service temperature range across all materials: 60°C to 150°C [6](@ref).

5. Primary Applications of K2 Teller Rosette Ring

The K2 ring is widely used across industries for gas-liquid contacting processes [4,6](@ref):

  • • Acid Gas Removal: SO2, SO3, H2S, HCl, Cl2, HF, NOx absorption
  • • Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD): Coal-fired power plants, thermal power stations
  • • VOC Waste Gas Treatment: High porosity and anti-clogging make K2 ideal for VOCs exhaust scrubbing [2](@ref)
  • • Coke Oven Gas (COG) Treatment: Desulfurization, light oil recovery, gas cooling
  • • Ammonia & Nitrogen Industry: NH3 absorber, ammonium sulfate plants
  • • Chlorine Drying: Soda industry chlorine drying towers
  • • Water & Wastewater Treatment: Ammonium, trihalomethane, trichloroethylene stripping; deodorization

6. Quick FAQ

Q: Is "K2" the same as "2K"?

A: Yes. Many customers refer to this size as "2K" while others call it "K2". Both names denote the ~73 mm (3-inch) spiked Teller Rosette Ring [4,5](@ref).

Q: How much K2 packing do I need for my tower?

A: Bulk number is ~6,600 pcs/m³. For a 1.5 m diameter tower with 3 m bed height: π × 0.75² × 3 × 6,600 ≈ 87,800 pieces. Contact us with your tower dimensions for a precise quote.

Q: Can K2 handle high-particulate gas streams?

A: Absolutely. The 95% void fraction and spiked geometry resist fouling even with aerosols and fine particulates, making K2 a preferred choice for VOC and industrial exhaust scrubbing [2](@ref).
