How to prolong activated alumina life

How to prolong activated alumina life? This is a common question about activated alumina. As a senior activated alumina factory, we offer you below suggestion:


  1. Firstly, the quality of activated alumina is most important. The abrasion, hardness and bulk density are very important in prolong of activated alumina life. So, please choose the standard activated alumina factories.

  2. The rapid change of gas pressure in the adsorption dryer will cause the loosening or friction of the desiccant activated alumina bed. If this happens, it will cause the desiccant ball to wear, de-powder, and fragment, and affect the service life of the desiccant activated alumina. It is necessary to prevent rapid changes in the pressure of the adsorption dryer during operation.

  3. Water in the feed gas will affect the service life of the desiccant activated alumina. The feed gas should be strictly controlled for dehydration to avoid water vapor and liquid entrainment. This is often happened in using.

 4. If the feed gas composition is not within the reasonable range of the design, it will also affect the use of the desiccant activated alumina. When the feed gas has a high impurity concentration, the adsorption time should be shortened to prevent impurity overload.


5. The temperature of the feed gas is too high to affect the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent, and it is easy to cause overload of impurities, and the temperature is too low to affect the regeneration. It is necessary to ensure that the feed temperature is within the required range.


6. Adjust the reasonable adsorption time, deal with the fault alarm in time, and prevent the activated alumina ball from being overloaded with impurities. When the impurity overload is serious, it will affect the performance of the desiccant.


If you have any activated alumina life questions, please let us know. We will help you to analyse and deal with them. Thanks!
