When used as a desiccant, the gel beads will gradually change color from orange to green. Once the gel beads turn green they are no longer active and must be heated to remove the accumulated moisture using a conventional oven at 250° for 3 hours. When the color of the gel beads returns to orange, the canister is read to be reused after it cools off.  Silica gel beads are orange in color when active (dry).
