Abstract
The invention relates to a packing block made by alternately stacking thin corrugated plates (P1, P3) with a first elongation direction (X1), thin corrugated plates with a second elongation direction (X2) different from the first, and sheets (2) made of a material adsorbing the contaminants, interposed between the various thin plates in this stack. Such a block is used to pack the units of a purification device and is disposed in a stream of effluents containing contaminants such that the effluents pass through the channels delimited by the corrugations of the corrugated plates and the interposed sheets.
