How to choose the molecular sieve in air separation

2020-10-22

There are many types of molecular sieves, which are classified according to their use. They mainly include 3A molecular sieves for insulating glass, 4A molecular sieves for air separation equipment, 5A molecular sieves for industrial oxygen production, 13X molecular sieves for cryogenic cooling, carbon molecular sieves for nitrogen generators, and molecular sieves for refrigeration.
Each manufacturer uses different raw materials and uses different production processes, so the products produced will have differences in quality. Even if two manufacturers use the same raw materials, the properties of different production areas are different due to the difference in geographical environment and natural conditions, and the differences in the manufacturing processes of different manufacturers cause differences in the performance of the products of different manufacturers. The correct choice of molecular sieve type in water treatment is an important step in adsorption treatment.
The requirements for 4A molecular sieve and other products used in the adsorption dryer of the air separation plant are obviously higher. The strength and adsorption capacity are required to be strong to avoid pulverization and crushing in the adsorption tower. If the required pressure and temperature are too low, it needs to be replaced with 13X molecular sieve. It is better to use activated alumina ball desiccant in the drier.
