Abstract
A liquid distributor for a gas-liquid contact column, which liquid distributor comprises a plurality of elongated distributors extending across the general cross section of a gas-liquid contact column, and secondary distributing troughs located on each side of the distributor, the secondary distributor troughs containing a deflection plate having an upper section and a lower section and a support plate which connects the deflection plate and spaces the deflection plate apart from the liquid distributor, the support plate having large openings for the upward passage of a gas and smaller openings located near the intersection of the support plate with the deflection plate to permit the liquid splashing from the orifices of the liquid distributor against the deflection plate to flow downwardly against the wall surface of the lower portion of the deflection plate and to be distributed through multiple drip points on the lower edge of the deflection plate in the lower portion of the gas-liquid column.
