Basics
- Using a random distribution of materials to pack a column
- The easiest to set up, may not be the most efficient, but will most likely "get the job done"
- Steel Wool and Similar Metal Wools, Shredded Materials, Rings, Lattice Shapes, And Large Spheres can all work
Off the Shelf Solutions
Steel Wool
- Easily available at local stores
Copper Scouring Pads
- Available as "dish scrubbers"
- Should be more "food grade" and thus can be used in distillers etc
- Amazon Search
- ~10 USD for a few ~10 cm diameter by ~2.5 cm disks
Stainless Steel Scouring Pads
- Similar to the copper, yet stainless steel
Shredded Material
- Plastic Flakes or Bottle Shredder shreds can work
- The waste from metalwork such as Metal Lathes, and CNC Mills should work
Plastic Lattices
Rings
- Chopped Pipe (PVC or Metal)
- Ceramic Rings
