BASF F-200 is an industry leading spherical activated alumina desiccant designed for drying liquids and gases. With uniform ball size that helps minimize pressure drop during dehydration of high pressure gas sources, its tailored pore distribution offers high dynamic H2O adsorption capacity, its spherical shape preventing segregation during pneumatic loading, more efficient use of tower volume utilization. Additional features of Basf F 200 include low abrasion, high crush strength resistance to amines as well as resistance against other chemicals.
High adsorption capacity
BASF F-200 activated alumina is the industry standard for drying compressed air, offering exceptional dewpoint control at very low pressures and long service lives.
Attribute this success to uniform spherical bead size and strong resistance against crushing and attrition that helps minimize dust production. Alumina’s surface chemistry and tailored pore distribution ensure an extremely high H2O absorption capacity dynamic.
F-200’s properties make it ideal for high pressure gas dehydration and the removal of water and hydrocarbons in applications like natural gas processing, refinery off-gases, chemical plants, steam crackers and Urea production. Due to its superior abrasion resistance and dust reduction properties during transport, loading and service which helps minimize pressure drop while helping prevent valve and filter plugging that might otherwise happen with less dusty products. Its uniform bead size and sphericity also prevent adsorption segregation during pneumatic loading which reduces channeling while optimizing its use within desiccant towers for more effective desiccant tower use efficiency.
Lite slitasje
BASF F-200 is an ultra refined activated alumina desiccant that has become an excellent solution for drying compressed air. Constructed from smooth spheres with tailored pores designed to absorb polar molecules more effectively than nonpolar molecules, BASF F-200 desiccants offer efficient drying of compressed air systems. The high dynamic H2O absorption capacity ensures that this product can meet even the lowest dew point specifications. BASF F-200 stands out with its superior adsorption capacity and low dew point specification, in addition to its outstanding crush strength and resistance to amines – qualities that make it particularly suitable for thermally regenerative and pressure swing dehydration towers. In particular, its low dusting during transport, loading and service life compared to similar dustier products reduce downstream valve and filter plugging issues that commonly arise with such use.
Høy dynamisk H2O-adsorpsjonskapasitet
BASF F-200 boasts an exceptional dynamic H2O adsorption capacity that helps lower airstream dewpoint pressure dew points and maximize efficiency. The hard, spherical beads with excellent resistance against crushing and attrition provide stability during drying cycles while its low abrasion means reduced dusting during transport, loading, service life reducing pressure drops as well as downstream valve and filter plugging, common with other dustier products.
Aluminum oxide (e-Al2O3 and kh-Al2O3)’s dynamic water vapour adsorption capacity can be determined by several factors including its structure, surface structure, textural characteristics (specific surface area and pore volume) and granule size distribution. By changing the concentration of alkali metal cations introduced during CTA product hydration during synthesis it may be possible to alter donor-acceptor properties on its surface and thus achieve significant enhancement in its capacity with regards to water vapour.
Høy knusestyrke
BASF Sorbead(r) Air is an innovative range of high performance alumino-silicate gel adsorbents designed for dehydration of air, technical gases and liquids. F-200 spherical beads feature low abrasion rates with superior crush strength; resistance to amines; high crush strength resistance and an efficient adsorptive capacity.
While all molecules can be adsorbed to some degree by F-200 spherical activated alumina, those with higher polarity tend to be preferentially adsorbed. Pressure, concentration and molecular weight of molecules as well as temperature as well as competing molecules all play a part in how effectively adsorptive surface areas absorb them.
BASF F-200’s uniform spherical shape and high crush strength help it resist segregation during pneumatic loading into desiccant towers, thus minimizing channeling which reduces pressure drop and extends bed life. Videre, its tailored pore distribution and dynamic H2O absorption capacity enable it to meet stringent pipeline specifications without expending excessive energy while its excellent cyclic stability yields long life span.
