Click any link below to learn more about adsorbents in your industry.
Cryogenic Air Prepurification
CryoDry Adsorbents – Molecular Sieve and more
Removes: water (H2O), nitrogen oxides, light weight hydrocarbons, and more
Air separation plants use cryogenic air separation technology to bring gas streams to extremely low temperatures, which allows plants to separate various gases by the condensation point. Gas that is cryogenically separated needs to have extremely low levels of water, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide in the stream to prevent freezing and blockage.
Desiccant Air Dryers
Desiccant Products – Activated Alumina, Silica Gel, Molecular Sieve, and more
Removes: water (H2O) and other contaminants
Desiccant dryers are used to dehydrate atmospheric air, or pure gases including H2, N2, O2, CO2, for use in pneumatic equipment. It is important for these gases to be purified and dehydrated before use to prevent corrosion and damage to machinery. Quality desiccants will offer an ideal combination of strength and adsorption capacity to produce high purity, dry air that can be trusted for use without causing damage to equipment.
Oxygen Generation
OxyFlo Adsorbents – Molecular Sieve: Type 5A, Type 13X, Specialized Types, and more
Removes: water (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), and other contaminants
PSA separation techniques replace the traditional cryogenic air separation because of its low investment, low energy consumption, and easy operation. Oxygen and nitrogen are separated, using molecular sieve, then oxygen or oxygen-enriched air is captured. This process works under the principle that molecular sieve for oxygen generation adsorbs nitrogen and oxygen at different rates in a certain pressure condition. Once separated, the oxygen stream can be used in various refining processes, as feed gas for pneumatic equipment, utilized for breathing oxygen, and for other industries that require high purity oxygen streams.
Hydrogen Purification
HydroFlo Adsorbents – Molecular Sieve, Catalysts, and more
Removes: water (H2O), oxygen, and more depending on product type
HydroFlo products are capable of generating high purity streams of hydrogen from an array of feed stocks, whether using atmospheric air to isolate hydrogen or purifying hydrogen from Steam Methane Reforming (SMR) feed, we will help select the ideal product for you.
Nitrogen Purification
NitroFlo Adsorbents – Molecular Sieves, Catalysts, Carbons, and more
Removes: water (H2O), oxygen, oil, organic particles, and more depending on the adsorbent type
Nitrogen can be produced using atmospheric air and can be either adsorbed or rejected during Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) processes to create a high purity stream. Our NitroFlo products are capable of generating high purity streams of nitrogen using a wide variety of different separation techniques. Whether you’re creating a nitrogen stream from atmospheric air or purifying an existing stream for high purity, we have the product for you.
Dehydration Units
