Ripple Tray™ Technology

Shaw's high-capacity Ripple Trays are self-adjusting trays used to combat liquid and vapor fouling and increase production capacity. For more than 50 years, Ripple Tray installations in 470 applications worldwide have provided exceptional distillation, absorption, stripping and heat transfer service in towers up to 40 feet in diameter.

The Ripple Tray's inherent ability to optimize liquid and vapor handling has resulted in significant capacity increases over conventional trays. The continuous agitation of the liquid on the top side of the trays combined with constant underside wetting/washing action makes this tray ideal for fouling services.
