Desiccant Air Dryers

Activated alumina is an aluminum oxide bead with an extremely porous structure and high surface area-to-mass ratio. Activated alumina has a wide variety of applications, including compressed air and gas drying. In compressed air and gas drying applications, activated alumina will achieve dew points -40°F to -100°F, depending on the dryer design. In compressed air desiccant dryers, a 1/8" (2-5 mm) activated alumina bead is most commonly used. The 1/4" (5-10 mm) activated alumina bead is typically used as a pre-bed for supporting large desiccant beds or as a buffer for silica gel beds. The 3/16" (5-10 mm) bead is used when pressure drop and surface area requirements fall between the 1/8" and 1/4" material. Features and Benefits High adsorption capacity for reducing initial cost, energy consumption, and operating costs Low abrasion for ensuring minimal dusting and a low pressure drop Resistant to liquid water slugging resulting from the failure of up stream after-coolers, separators, or drain traps. The adsorption capacity of the desiccant can be restored after complete regeneration. High crush strength for limiting dusting during loading of desiccant into dryer towers Uniform bead size minimizes pressure drop, channeling, and ensures utilization of the full desiccant bed In regenerative drying systems, Van Air activated alumina beds are sized for a service life of 2-5 years Available in 25lb pails, 50lb bags, 375lb steel drums and 2,000lb bulk bags Downloads Brochure Safety Data Sheet (SDS)

Dry-O-Lite, the industry-leading deliquescent desiccant, is a chemical drying agent specifically formulated for Van Air Systems single tower compressed air dryers and natural gas pipeline dryers. Dry-O-Lite is a dense hygroscopic tablet that absorbs water vapor from streams of compressed air or gas. The surface of the desiccant tablet dissolves slowly, forming a brine solution which drops from the surface. The tablet continuously dissolves, or deliquesces, until the desiccant is fully consumed. In a properly sized D-series Compressed Air Dryer or Pipeline Dryer, Dry-O-Lite will establish a relative humidity of 55%, which equates to a dew point approximately 20°F lower than the temperature of the compressed air or gas at the inlet of the dryer. *Also known as GasDry Prime Features and Benefits No energy consumption Prevents condensation Can be used indoors or outdoors Prevents wintertime air and gas line freeze-ups Environmentally safe Low cost of operation relative to refrigerated dryers and regenerative desiccant dryers 3/4" tablet Little or no maintenance on drying equipment Available in 50lb bags, 50lb pails, 480lb steel drums and 2,000lb bulk bags Applications Abrasive blasting Portable air drying Low pressure gases, e.g. digester gas and landfill gas Remote outdoor locations without electricity Fuel gas dehydration for natural gas Ready-mix, asphalt, and concrete plants Pulp and paper Steel mills Dirty environments or areas with electrical classification restrictions Downloads Brochure Safety Data Sheet (SDS)

Molecular sieve is highly porous sodium aluminosilicate bead for the adsorption of a wide range of liquids and gases. It has a fixed pore size according to the material specification. Van Air Systems offers molecular sieve with a 4 angstrom pore size. Because of its high comparative cost, molecular sieve is normally used for special process applications. In compressed air and gas drying applications, molecular sieve will deliver pressure dew point to -100°F, depending on dryer design and operating conditions. Features and Benefits More consistent moisture retention from 10% to 100% relative humidity Used to produce dew points as low as -100°F. With a round shape, Van Air Systems molecular sieve has a higher abrasion resistance and delivers a lower pressure drop that extruded molecular sieves.

Silica gel is a spherical bread consisting of 97% silica and 3% alumina with a highly porous surface and a strong affinity for adsorbing water. Silica gel is also applied as a selective adsorbent for a wide-range of hydrocarbons, C02, siloxanes, sulfur, and many other compounds. Because silica gel fractures in the presence of liquid water, it is often protected with a pre-bed of activated alumina. In air and gas drying applications, dew points of -40°F and lower can be achieved with silica gel. Features and Benefits High moisture retention capacity under dynamic conditions, allowing heated desiccant dryers with a higher design capacity and lower regeneration temperature A uniform bead shape provides for a lower pressure drop and less abrasion than granular types of silica gel. Available in two types, non-indicating and indicating. Indicating silica gel is impregnated with a moisture indicator that changes color from blue to pink when saturated. High static adsorption (moisture retention) under certain relative humidity conditions Available in indicating (blue to pink) and non-indicating Available in 25lb pails, 50lb bags and 330lb steel drums Downloads Brochure Safety Data Sheet (SDS)
