Desiccant Dryers
Click any of the tabs above to learn more about the Industrial Drying industry.
Overview
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.
How it Works
Inlet air passes through the pre-filter and is distributed, by use of valves, to direct the air into one of the multiple adsorbent beds, commonly filled with activated alumina, which allows the air to be dehydrated and purified. Air leaves the adsorption bed, and passes through another series of values, which distributes the dry air to another filter before use. Air that is not outlet is used as regeneration air, and directed to a different adsorbent bed so that desiccant can be regenerated once capacity has been reached. A system with two or more beds can allow constant dry air production as one bed can regenerate while the other adsorbent bed is actively dehydrating the air stream.

- • capable of dehydrating surrounding environment
- • creates ideal streams for the production of chemicals and pharmaceuticals
- • offers advantageous adsorption capacity in static and dynamic applications
HYG04DG 4A Molecular Sieve
HYG04DG molecular sieve is manufactured for the dehydration of hydrocarbon streams and can selectively remove water from both liquid phase and vapor phase streams. This dehydration process allows the hydrocarbon streams to be further processed in cryogenic separation and is more easily transported. This molecular sieve, with a high adsorption capacity, can bring benefits to a wide range of dehydration applications.
- • used for the dehydration hydrocarbon streams
- • capable of removing water to meet most specifications
- • allows hydrocarbons to be further processed and transported
- • offers an advantageous adsorption capacity
- Standard Blue Indicating Silica Gel is manufactured for use as a desiccant by selectively removing water from its surrounding environment. These dehydrating capabilities make silica gel an ideal product for both static and dynamic applications including use in power transformer breathers and desiccant air dryers. This silica gel is enhanced with the ability to indicate its remaining adsorption capacity by changing color, from blue to pink, as the silica gel becomes saturated with water.
• used in common desiccant applications to control moisture and humidity
• can handle dynamic applications and gives the advantage of color indication
• protects metals, equipment, and electronics from rusting or water damage
• changes color, from blue to pink, as it adsorbs water and reaches adsorption capacity
- Standard White Silica Gel
Standard White Silica Gel is manufactured for bulk dehydration applications and selectively removes water from the open air and surrounding environment. Maintaining a moisture free environment is important for the shipment and storage of dry goods and will help prevent the rusting of instruments, gauges, and equipment. This silica gel can be used in both static or dynamic applications and offers a high physical strength and adsorption capacity.
• used in bulk desiccant dehydration applications to control moisture and humidity
• performs wells in dynamic applications and offers a high physical strength
• protects metals, equipment, and electronics from rusting or water damage
• high capacity and ideal for bulk dehydration applications
- Standard Yellow Silica Gel is manufactured for use as a desiccant by selectively removing water from its surrounding environment. These dehydrating capabilities make silica gel an ideal adsorbent for both static and dynamic applications including use in power transformer breathers and desiccant air dryers. This silica gel is enhanced with the ability to indicate its remaining adsorption capacity by changing color, from yellow to green, as the silica gel becomes saturated with water.
• used in common desiccant applications to control moisture and humidity
• can handle dynamic applications and offers a high physical strength and adsorption capacity
• protects metals, equipment, and electronics from rusting or water damage
• changes color, from yellow to green, as it adsorbs water and reaches adsorption capacity
