DESCRIPTION
AW-300 MOLSIV adsorbent is a small pore opening,acid resistant molecular sieve product.
APPLICATIONS
AW-300 molecular sieve has been specially formulated for dehydration of highly acidic streams such as hydrogen chloride and chlorinated hydrocarbons. It has demonstrated the ability to provide long service life and predictable, economical dehydration service.
CHEMICAL FORMULA
Mx[(AlO2)x(SiO2)y]• z H2O [M=Na, K, Ca, Mg]
REGENERATION
AW-300 MOLSIV adsorbent can be regenerated for reuse by purging or evacuating at temperatures of 300°F to 600°F.
SAFETY AND HANDLING
See the TOP brochure entitled "Precautions and Safe Practices for Handling Molecular Sieves in Process Units" or contact your TOP representative.
SHIPPING INFORMATION
AW-300 adsorbent is available in 55-gallon steel drums or quick load bags.
