What is Activated Alumina?
Activated Alumina is composed of aluminum hydroxide and is a highly porous adsorbent that provides surfaces of 200 m²/g or more. Industrial processes, particularly those involving fluoride, arsenic, and selenium, effectively remove moisture, contamination, and gases by washing compressed air and water. With its exceptional adsorption capabilities and chemical stability, alumina balls are crucial for industries such as pharmaceuticals, electronics, food processing, and the production of drying equipment.
Key Specifications of Activated Alumina Beads
Activated Alumina beads is a porous, high surface area form of aluminum oxide that adsorbs moisture and traces contaminants from gases and liquids.
Here are the specifications:
- Usually surface area 200m²/g or more
- Common Bead Sizes:
- 2mm to 5 mm (1/8″) Most frequently used size for regenerative dryers
- 5mm to 10 mm (1/4″) Often used as bed support layers in desiccant towers
- Typical Dew Point Performance: As low as -40°F (-40°C)
- Physical Shape: Evenly large, robust beads that are wear resistant and resistant to liquid water damage.
Activated Aluminum Desiccants and Its Applications
Engineers rely on activated alumina desiccants because the beads pull moisture, fluoride, arsenic, and acid gases out of fluids without losing strength or shape. Specifically:
- Recycled Air Dryers: Aluminum 2mm ensures that taps are delivered below -40°F.
- Water Preparation: Removes fluoride, arsenic, selenium and other contaminants from drinking water.
- Gas Cleaning: When exposed to moisture, it adsorbs gases and vapors efficiently without mitigating or falling.
Activated Alumina for Instrument Air Drying
Air drying of equipment is essential to prevent corrosion and to extend the service life of equipment in industrial production. Alumina Beads can effectively remove moisture from compressed air, ensuring the reliability and smooth operation of equipment in some industries.
Key Benefits of Activated alumina Beads for instrument air drying:
- High Moisture Adsorption Capacity: consistently achieves low tap points. Adsorbents are extremely important for moisture sensitive processes.
- Excellent Chemical Stability: Operates reliably across a wide range of temperatures and pH levels, making it suitable for demanding industries such as pharmaceuticals, food processing, and electronics.
- Low wear resistance and high crash resistance: Minimum dust and pressure waste under load, reduce maintenance needs, and improve operational productivity.
- Resistance to Liquid Water: Accidental water pollution is prevented without breaks, ensuring even higher performance even after complete regeneration.
- Uniform Bead Size: Provides consistent pressure and optimal performance, avoiding canalization and maximizing efficiency.
- Environmentally Friendly: Activated Alumina is reusable and recyclable, thereby reducing waste and the ecological footprint.
