The industry-standard activated alumina desiccant is used extensively in compressed air dryers. Our activated alumina desiccant can be regenerated to its original adsorption capacity by purging with hot gas at 350° to 600° F. Activated alumina is for use in both heated desiccant air dryers and heatless / pressure swing compressed air dryers. Dewpoints of -100° F can be achieved depending on dryer design and operating conditions.
Activated alumina is an excellent all purpose desiccant for drying compressed air and most other gases with air dryers.
