Adsorbents

Durasorb^® Dehy

Durasorb^{^®} Dehy is an innovative technology that provides reliable dehydration service to LNG producers.

The combination bed is designed by experts to eliminate degradation from regeneration reflux conditions. Durasorb Dehy units have longer bed life, extending time between turnarounds, which reduces costs and lost production time.

Customized design combines BASF products into a single solution

Durasorb^{^®} Dehy is the combination of two BASF products into a single solution to capitalize on the benefits from each product:

Durasorb^{^®} HD (High Durability): water resistant adsorbent
Durasorb^{^®} HR (High Resistant): reflux resistant molecular sieve

Innovative technology in both the HD and HR layers provide benefits to the plant:

Extended bedlife
Reduced coking
Elimination of hydrothermal damage

Durasorb^{^®} HD is 100% resistant to liquid water and maintains mechanical stability even in liquid water carryover conditions.

Innovative Technology Solves the Regeneration Reflux Problem

Durasorb^{^®} HD is resistant to liquid water and maintains mechanical stability, increasing water uptake capacity, resulting in reduced bed size or higher gas throughput. Increased bed lifetime results in higher utilization.

Durasorb^{^®} HR is developed to withstand harsh conditions found in fast-cycling dehydraters often seen in Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) applications. This innovative material produces significantly less fines after 600 cycle test.
