Calculating the cubic weight of structured packing needs to be calculated according to the volume and density of the packing, the specific steps are as follows:

Determine the packing volume: measure the length, width and height of the packing (the unit should be unified, such as centimeters or meters), volume = length × width × height 1.
Obtain packing density: Different materials have different packing density, such as:
The density of ceramic structured packing is usually 2.5~3.6 g/cm³13;
The density of stainless steel structured packing should be determined according to the specific material 3.
Calculate weight: volume (cm³) x density (g/cm³) = weight (g), or volume (m³) x density (kg/m³) = weight (kg) 1.
Example:
If the ceramic packing size is 10cm×10cm×10cm (volume 1000 cm³) and the density is 3 g/cm³, the weight is 3000 g (3 kg) 1.
If the density of type 1600 ceramic packing is 2.5 g/cm³, the weight of 1 cubic meter (1,000,000 cm³) is about 250,000 g (250 kg) 4.
Note:
In practical application, the packing may affect the volume calculation due to installation spacing, porosity and other factors, and need to be adjusted according to the specific working condition2.
The density of different materials (such as PP, stainless steel) varies greatly, and the specific parameters need to be confirmed.
