If you still have a drying problem, you haven't tried Alcoa Alumina.
Here's why we're so sure:
Alcoa® Activated Alumina F-l dries to dew points as low as or lower than any other commercial desiccant. In f a c t , —140°F ( m e a s u r e d ) and — 200°F ( e s t i m a t e d f r o m d o w n stream process conditions) have been obtained in commercial operations. It is nontoxic; it is inert chemically to most gases and vapors; it will not soften, swell or disintegrate in water; and in many F-l applica-
tionsitcan be reactivated indefinitely. Alcoa Alumina Gel. We call it the near-perfect desiccant, superior to anything available today for all types of adsorption and hydrocarbon recovery. High sustained capacity—up to 28 per cent at 60 per cent R.H. Ideal for drying liquids, gases at high pressure, or wherever maximum adsorption is needed under isothermal conditions.
Split-Bed Combination. If you need both high capacity and low dew points, combine the two types for limitless split-bed versatility. We'll helpyou determine the precise ratio.
