Activated alumina is the perfect desiccant for gas drying at the industrial level. It effectively removes moisture and other contaminants from industrial gases. The desiccant is highly utilized in large-scale gas industries to separate and purify industrial gases from moisture.
Being the fourth utility of a production facility (the other three being electricity, water and gas) compressed air is a very important resource that should be carefully treated in any manufacturing plant. It should be carefully examined in a periodical manner. The moisture present in the air should be removed and also the contaminants should be eliminated. This will result in the efficient working of the whole system. Improved performance and reduced operational costs are two major perks of having efficient air and gas drying systems.
Significance of compressed air and gas drying
Regular atmospheric air and compressed air all contain some amount of water vapour. This water vapour will cause problems in future because of an increase in water concentration in the system. Therefore, to prevent problems in the future, wet air must be controlled. Drying equipment can be used for the same purpose.
There is moisture present in the irregular atmospheric air that will have moisture content. When the air or gas crosses the saturation point, this vapour will condense and reach the liquid state. This process happens at a certain temperature and this temperature is known as the dew point.
Moisture leads to damages and problems
When the compressed air employed in the manufacturing plant contains moisture, it will damage various valves, pneumatic air systems, air motors, different passages etc. They will cause damages, wear and tear, impact lubrication, corrosion, causes the valves and passages to be plugged and clogged and also affects the overall functioning of the system. Further, the moisture harms the adherence, colour and finish of paint etc. Hence, they- lead to malfunctioning, false readings in the instruments, faulty operations, and even cause the total system to shut down.
Compressed air and gas drying becomes necessary to obtain perfectly finished products, for the smooth flow of uninterrupted production, improved performance of the whole system and reduced operating costs.
