Results are presented for study and analysis of column equipment structure, loaded with MICHM-X mini ring packing. It is shown that the packing exhibits self-orientation properties during loading mini ring packing elements into the equipment. Predominantly horizontal orientation of mini ring packing elements within column equipment provides an almost homogeneous layup structure. A two-zone structure is proposed for model column equipment with random packing that may be used for predicting the hydrodynamic situation in column equipment. Appropriate calculation relationships are provided.
