Abstract

Abstract Device for the separation of liquid droplets from a gas stream comprising a plurality of wave plates (1, 2 and 3) arranged close to one another in such a way that a passage (5, 12) is defined between two adjacent plates, which passage alternately comprises a narrowing part (21) and a widening part (22) that is joined to the narrowing part (21), wherein a bend in the passage lies between the largest width of the widening part (22) and the smallest width of a narrowing part (21) that is joined to the widening part (22).
