Improved flow distribution is another benefit of the Penataring shape, and its high –void space also increases the capacity for trapping large particulates.
Pentaring bed topping media is used as a hold-down media at the top of graded reactor beds.The Pentaring shape offers substantial gains in void fraction and surface area when compared to conventional sphere-shaped media or Raschig rings. The immediate benefit of high void fraction is lower pressure drop.
