Chemical dryers, activated carbon towers and filters are produced for conditioning compressed air. In the working principle of all these devices, it is essential to separate the pollutants such as moisture, water and oil in the air. İdeal Makina distributor of OMEGA offers Sorbeo branded activated carbon, active alumina and silica gel products of Omega.
The active alumina used in Heated Chemical (adsorption) dryers is the most commonly preferred adsorbent substance. Activated alumina dries by absorbing the water in compressed air. In addition to active alumina in large capacity chemical dryers, silica gel and molecular sieve are also used. Molecular sieve separates H2S and CO2 molecules, silica gel is used to separate the water in liquid form to protect the main adsorbent.
These active substances, which are named as desiccant chemicals, generally prevent problems such as dusting with a 2-5mm spherical structure, high fracture strength and low wear properties. These products, which have high adsorption capacity, are sold in various sizes such as containers, barrels or big bags.
