Van Air Systems 10BF is the most effective deliquescent desiccant from Van Air Systems.
Formulated primarily for the dehydration of natural gas and for use in Van Air Systems Pipeline Dryers, 10BF is a dense hygroscopic tablet that absorbs water vapour. The surface of the desiccant tablet dissolves slowly, forming a brine solution which drops from the surface. The tablet continuously dissolves or deliquesces, until the desiccant is fully consumed.
Van Air Systems’ deliquescent desiccants, including 10BF, are non-toxic and fully water soluble. In a properly sized Pipeline Dryer, 10BF will establish a relative humidity of 13%, which equates to a dew point depression of approximately 50-60°F.
Dryer Desiccants
With more than 65 years of experience developing desiccant formulas, Van Air Systems is the original and leading manufacturer of deliquescent desiccants for drying compressed air and gases. From a definition standpoint, a desiccant is a hygroscopic substance used as a drying agent. Many are commonly encountered in packaging to keep the contents dry and free from mold or mildew. However, for many industrial uses, deliquescent desiccants are a dependable, cost-effective, and energy-free tool for a wide range of industrial drying applications. Van Air Systems offers a variety of adsorbent desiccants, including activated alumina, silica gel, and molecular sieve. These desiccants are used in point-of-use applications, as well as in regenerative drying applications.
