Activated Alumina Desiccant Pellets – 1/4 Inch Diameter

Description Activated Alumina Desiccant Pellets are highly porous, high-capacity moisture absorbers engineered for efficient drying, purification, and filtration processes. Each pellet, with an average diameter of 1/4 inch, ensures superior airflow and adsorption performance, making it ideal for both small-scale and large-scale applications. Applications of Activated Alumina Desiccant Pellets (1/4 Inch) Air Drying and Moisture Control Removes moisture in compressed air dryers, dehumidifiers, and HVAC systems. Water Treatment Removes fluoride, arsenic, and heavy metals in drinking water and wastewater treatment systems. Gas Drying Dehydrates gases like natural gas, nitrogen, oxygen, and LPG to prevent freezing and corrosion. Chemical and Petrochemical Used as a catalyst support and for solvent drying in chemical processes. Desiccant Applications Protects moisture-sensitive products in packaging, shipping containers, and storage tanks. Electronics and Aerospace Prevents moisture damage in electronic components and cabin air systems. Food and Beverage Extends shelf life as a packaging desiccant and purifies process gases. Storage Instructions: Keep Dry: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent premature moisture absorption. Airtight Containers: Keep the pellets in sealed, airtight packaging (HDPE pails, bags, or drums) when not in use. Avoid Moisture Exposure: Do not expose the product to open air or humidity during storage, as Activated Alumina will absorb moisture from the environment. Temperature: Maintain a storage temperature between 5°C to 25°C (41°F to 77°F). Separation: Store away from water, acids, and strong alkaline substances to maintain chemical integrity. Handling Instructions: Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Wear safety goggles, gloves, and a dust mask when handling to prevent eye irritation and inhalation of dust. Minimize Dust: Handle gently to minimize the formation of dust, which can cause respiratory irritation. Avoid Water Contact: Do not add water directly to the pellets unless regenerating under controlled conditions. Safe Transfer: Use clean, dry tools or scoops to transfer the product into systems or equipment. Regeneration: Procedure: Heat Activated Alumina pellets to 200°C–300°C (392°F–572°F) to remove absorbed moisture and restore adsorption capacity. Safety: Use appropriate equipment and ensure the process is carried out in a well-ventilated area or controlled environment. Disposal of Activated: Dispose of used Activated Alumina in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. Avoid releasing the material into drains, soil, or waterways.
