Solid Desiccant
Dehydration
Desiccants in common commercial use fall
into one of three categories:
 Alumina - Regenerable aluminum oxide
base desiccant.
 Silica Gel - Regenerable silicon oxide
adsorbent.
 Molecular Sieves - Regenerable solid
desiccants composed of crystalline metal
aluminosilicates (zeolites).

Process Flow of Solid Desiccant Dehydrators
Solid Desiccant selection
Characteristics of solid desiccant
• Large surface area for high capacity .
• Possesses “activity” for the component too be
removed .
• Mass transfer rate is high
• Easily and economically regenerated good activity
retention with time
• small resistance to gas flow .
• High mechanical strength to resist crushing and dust
formation .
• Fairly cheap , non-corrosive , non-toxic , chemically
inert and possesses a high bulk density
• No appreciable change in volume during adsorption
and desorption , and should retain strength when
“wet” .

 allowable vapor
velocity through the
bed is the first
parameter that must
be estimated
Mohamed Abdelraof Saad
 Once the allowable superficial velocity is
estimated, the bed diameter can be
calculated for a design vapor rate.
 In the saturation zone, molecular sieve is expected to
hold approximately 13 pounds of water per 100 pounds
of sieve.
 New sieve will have an equilibrium capacity near 20%;
13%represents the approximate capacity of a 3-5 year
old sieve.
 This capacity needs to be adjusted when the gas is not
water saturated or the temperature is above 75°F.

Inlet and Outlet Temperatures During Typical Solid Desiccant
Bed Regeneration Cycle
Mohamed Abdelraof Saad
 An inlet gas stream separator/liquid coalescer.
 Two or more adsorption towers (contactors) filled with
solid desiccant.
 A high-temperature heater that provides hot
regeneration gas to reactivate the desiccant in the
towers.
 A regeneration gas cooler that condenses water from the
hot regeneration gas.
 A regeneration gas separator (knockout) that removes
the condensed water from the regeneration gas.
 Piping manifolds, switching valves, and controls that
direct and control the flow of gases according to the
process requirements.
Function of Major Components
of Solid Desiccant Dehydrators
Mohamed Abdelraof Saad
As with glycol dehydrators, inlet separators
protect the dehydrator from impurities such as:
free water, salt, compressor oils, hydrocarbon
liquids, paraffins, corrosion inhibitors, glycol,
amines, rust, iron sulfide, iron oxide, fractionation
sands, drilling mud, pipeline scale, and sulfur.

Regeneration Gas Cooler
 Regeneration gas coolers reduce the
temperature of the regeneration gas
to condense the adsorbed water and,
sometimes, hydrocarbons. Cooling
the regeneration gas also prepares it
for further processing.
Mohamed Abdelraof Saad
Regeneration Gas Separator
Regeneration gas separators remove
liquids condensed by the regeneration
gas cooler from the regeneration gas
Switching Valves
Switching valves direct the process
fluid and regeneration gas to the
appropriate component of the
dehydrator
Mohamed Abdelraof Saad
Instrumentation
The monitoring of solid desiccant dehydrators
requires a variety of instrumentation to measure
or control the following process variables:
 Flow rate, temperature, and pressure of the process fluid
 Water content of the product fluid
 Flow rate and pressure of the regeneration gas
 Inlet and outlet temperatures of the regeneration gas
 Temperature of the regeneration gas leaving the
regeneration gas cooler
 Adsorbent differential bed pressure
 Cycle time controllers

Mohamed Abdelraof Saad Solid Desiccant Dehydration Desiccants in common commercial use fall into one of three categories:  Alumina - Regenerable aluminum oxide base desiccant.  Silica Gel - Regenerable silicon oxide adsorbent.  Molecular Sieves - Regenerable solid desiccants composed of crystalline metal aluminosilicates (zeolites).

  • 12. Solid Desiccant selection Characteristics of solid desiccant • Large surface area for high capacity . • Possesses “activity” for the component too be removed . • Mass transfer rate is high • Easily and economically regenerated good activity retention with time • small resistance to gas flow . • High mechanical strength to resist crushing and dust formation . • Fairly cheap , non-corrosive , non-toxic , chemically inert and possesses a high bulk density • No appreciable change in volume during adsorption and desorption , and should retain strength when “wet” .

  • 16. Adsorption Calculations  allowable vapor velocity through the bed is the first parameter that must be estimated
  • 17. Adsorption Calculations  allowable vapor velocity through the bed is the first parameter that must be estimated
  • 18. Mohamed Abdelraof Saad  Once the allowable superficial velocity is estimated, the bed diameter can be calculated for a design vapor rate.  In the saturation zone, molecular sieve is expected to hold approximately 13 pounds of water per 100 pounds of sieve.  New sieve will have an equilibrium capacity near 20%; 13%represents the approximate capacity of a 3-5 year old sieve.  This capacity needs to be adjusted when the gas is not water saturated or the temperature is above 75°F.

  • 24. Mohamed Abdelraof Saad  An inlet gas stream separator/liquid coalescer.  Two or more adsorption towers (contactors) filled with solid desiccant.  A high-temperature heater that provides hot regeneration gas to reactivate the desiccant in the towers.  A regeneration gas cooler that condenses water from the hot regeneration gas.  A regeneration gas separator (knockout) that removes the condensed water from the regeneration gas.  Piping manifolds, switching valves, and controls that direct and control the flow of gases according to the process requirements. Function of Major Components of Solid Desiccant Dehydrators
  • 25. Mohamed Abdelraof Saad As with glycol dehydrators, inlet separators protect the dehydrator from impurities such as: free water, salt, compressor oils, hydrocarbon liquids, paraffins, corrosion inhibitors, glycol, amines, rust, iron sulfide, iron oxide, fractionation sands, drilling mud, pipeline scale, and sulfur.

  • 35. Mohamed Abdelraof Saad Instrumentation The monitoring of solid desiccant dehydrators requires a variety of instrumentation to measure or control the following process variables:  Flow rate, temperature, and pressure of the process fluid  Water content of the product fluid  Flow rate and pressure of the regeneration gas  Inlet and outlet temperatures of the regeneration gas  Temperature of the regeneration gas leaving the regeneration gas cooler  Adsorbent differential bed pressure  Cycle time controllers
