Why use Sorbead India Molecular Sieves?

Why use Sorbead India Molecular Sieves?

A sieve is an object that filters coarser from any fine particles, and it generally has a mesh structure. Similarly, the molecular sieve is a porous substance that will help filter out components of lesser molecular weight from liquids, gases, and semi-solids. The pores act as traps for these smaller components as the liquid or gas is allowed to pass over the molecular sieve. These molecular sieve pores are fixed diameters and are based on the diameter. This material is classified into microporous, mesoporous, and macroporous material.

Molecular sieves have uniform size and uniform pore diameter. They are available in pelleted, beaded and powdered forms. These materials are mainly used in various industries to adsorb water, hydrogen, oxygen, and many other polar molecules. In most scenarios, it acts as a drying agent by removing the water molecules from the material. Thus, they are referred to as desiccants.

The pores trap the polar molecules due to a surface process known as adsorption. Sieves are known as adsorbents, and the trapped molecules are referred to as adsorbates.

Molecular sieve generation and regeneration

The powder desiccants are activated forms of zeolites, silica gel, or silicon dioxide made to meet the application's requirements. The activation process leaves the pores on the material surface with a high affinity toward certain molecules. Such targeted molecules will be trapped in these pores and accumulate there. After some time, a maximum of adsorbates is trapped by the pores; the sieve becomes saturated.

Here comes the biggest attractive feature of molecular sieves. As they are saturated and cannot absorb any more molecules, these can be regenerated and reused. The molecular sieve regeneration process is quite simple and less dangerous. To regenerate the sieve, pass over the same gas or liquid at a pre-calculated pressure and temperature. The adsorbed molecules will leave the pores, and the primary activated state of the sieves is restored. The molecular sieve regeneration requires no additional system or cost involved.

Major applications:

Removal of water molecules from liquids and gases

SF6 gas purifying

Improve the efficiency of PU sealants

Purification of petroleum products

Molecular sieve for oxygen concentrator

Instrumental air drying

Drying air and gas

Removal of H2S and CO2 from methane

Dehydration of ethanol

Mercaptan removal from LPG

There are many more specific applications across industries.
