KC-Trockenperlen H
High-performance silica gel adsorbent, also
known as Sorbead H
BASF KC-Trockenperlen H is a high-performance,
extremely robust silica gel adsorbent for control of
hydrocarbon dew point in compressed natural gas.
The BASF KC-Trockenperlen line of
highly efficient adsorbents are aluminosilicate gels in the form of hard,
spherical beads, with a very high
resistance to crushing and a low
attrition rate. KC-Trockenperlen
adsorbents have a longer life than most
other adsorbents and can reduce
operating costs in most applications.
KC-Trockenperlen H is used for
controlling dew point and recovery of
heavy hydrocarbons from natural gas.
Simultaneously, KC-Trockenperlen H
dehumidifies the natural gas. KCTrockenperlen H is protected from liquid
condensation by approximately 20% of
KC-Trockenperlen WS or (where
required) KC-Trockenperlen WS+.
