China Wholesale Molecular Sieve 5a Manufacturers Suppliers – PSA Oxygen Generator 13X Molecular Sieve – Zhongtai

Technical Specification of 13X Type Molecular Sieve

Application of 13X Type Molecular Sieve

Removal of CO2 and moisture from air (air pre-purification) and other gases.
Separation of enriched oxygen from air.
Removal of mercaptans and hydrogen sulphide from natural gas.
Removal of mercaptans and hydrpogen sulphide from hydrocarbon liquid streams (LPG, butane, propane etc.)
Catalyst protection, removal of oxygenates from hydrocarbons (olefin streams).
Production of bulk oxygen in PSA units.
Production of medical oxygen in small scale oxygen concentrators.

Regeneration of 13X Type Molecular Sieve

Molecular sieve Type 13X can be regenerated by either heating in the case of thermal swing processes; or by lowering the pressure in the case of pressure swing processes.
To remove moisture from a 13X molecular sieve, a temperature of 250-300°C is required.
A properly regenerated molecular sieve can give moisture dew points below -100°C, or mercaptan or CO2 levels below 2 ppm.
The outlet concentrations on a pressure swing process will depend on the gas present, and on the conditions of the process.

Size
13X – Zeolites are available in beads of 1-2 mm(10×18 mesh), 2-3 mm(8×12 mesh), 2.5-5 mm(4×8 mesh) and as powder, and in pellet 1.6mm, 3.2mm.

Attention
To avoid damp and pre-adsorption of organic before running, or must to be reactivated.
