Activated alumina in heat regenerated drying systems is typically used for the adsorption of water vapour from air and gas streams. Commonly used in compressed air drying systems.
Note:Many operational problems can arise if a poor quality desiccant is used.
High-quality desiccants provide:
– Reliable air dryer operation: High quality desiccants provide reliable operation of the air dryer. High quality desiccants offer high water-loading capacity, high crush strength and low attrition loss. Low quality desiccants can physically deteriorate in service and result in high pressure drop across the air dryer vessel. Once the desiccant has physically degraded, poor performance of the air dryer will require the replacement of the desiccant.
– High water-loading capacity: High quality desiccants balance the critical parameters of bulk density, surface area and porosity to allow more water to be removed per cycle. Low quality desiccant characteristics will not be optimized and, as a result, will display low water-loading capacity. A low capacity desiccant may allow water to enter the air system, causing corrosion, freezing or equipment malfunction.
– Dust-free operation: High quality desiccants exhibit low attrition loss. Low quality desiccants can create dust which will plug tubing, valves and gauges, requiring costly maintenance or replacement.
– Long service life: High quality desiccants provide high water-loading capacity for a longer period of time. Longer service life saves money since desiccant replacement is required less frequently.
