Drying of Liquids

The drying of organic liquids is a special application of adsorption technology. Silica possesses comprehensive know-how for the design, layout, construction and assembly of such plants.
Beside water other objectionable contaminations can be removed.
Organic liquids
Toluene, xylene, hexane, chlorinated hydrocarbons, alcohols, tetrahydrofuran, cyclohexanone etc. are dried by adsorption. Normal water content at inlet 0.1 ... 1.5% wt.Residual humidity less than 1 ppm wt.
Liquefied Gases
Adsorption plants have been built for: propane, propylene, LPG, butane, and others. Normal water content at inlet corresponding to the solubility. Residual humidity less than 1 ppm wt.
