Van Air Systems Activated Alumina Desiccant

Van Air Systems Activated Alumina Desiccant Van Air Systems is the industry leader in providing high-performance desiccants for drying compressed air and gas. Among their offerings, activated alumina stands out as a versatile and effective adsorbent, widely used in both point-of-use and regenerative drying applications. This specialized form of aluminum oxide is engineered with a porous structure and a high surface area-to-mass ratio, allowing it to efficiently adsorb vapors without undergoing any change in form. Features & Benefits: High Adsorption Capacity: Activated alumina is capable of achieving extremely low dew points, between -40°F to -100°F, depending on dryer design, ensuring your compressed air and gas systems remain dry and free from moisture-related issues. Long Service Life: With a service life capability of 2-5 years, activated alumina offers long-lasting performance, reducing the frequency of replacements and maintenance. Low to Zero Dust Discharge: Engineered to minimize dust generation, activated alumina helps maintain clean, efficient systems with minimal particulate contamination. Low Abrasion & High Crush Strength: Designed to withstand the rigors of industrial use, activated alumina resists abrasion and maintains its integrity under pressure, even when exposed to slugs of liquid water. Versatility: Available in various bead sizes, including 1/8″, 3/16″, and 1/4″, to meet the specific needs of your system, whether used as a primary desiccant, pre-bed support, or buffer for other desiccant types like silica gel. Applications: Regenerative Dryers: Ideal for use in regenerative desiccant dryers, where it provides reliable moisture control and extended service life. Acid Removal: Effective in removing acids from process streams, ensuring the protection and longevity of your equipment. Process Stream Purification: Used to purify process streams by adsorbing contaminants and impurities.
