DehySorb Z10S is the sodium form of the Type X molecular sieve and an alkali metal aluminosilicate.
DehySorb Z10S molecular sieve will adsorb molecules with critical diameters up to 8 angstroms.
DehySorb Z10S is used commercially for gas and liquid hydrocarbon dehydration and purification (removal of polar oxygenates and sulfur compounds). All molecules that can be adsorbed on molecular sieve Types 3A, 4A, and 5A can be adsorbed on 13X-PG adsorbent. In addition, it can adsorb molecules of larger critical diameters, such as aromatics and branched-chain hydrocarbons.
Molecular sieve 13X is used in removal of CO2 and moisture from air (air pre-purification) and other gases.
Molecular sieve 13X is used in separation of enriched oxygen from air.
Molecular sieve 13X is used in removal of mercaptans and hydrpogen sulphide from hydrocarbon liquid streams such as LPG, butane, propane etc.
Molecular sieve 13X is used in removal of n-chained compositions from aromatics.
