Compressed Carbon Dioxide Dryers (CO2 Dryers) are designed for continuous separation of water vapour from compressed carbon dioxide, thus lowering its pressure dew point.
Carbon Dioxide is an inert gas which can be highly corrosive, depending on its level of humidity. Compressed Carbon Dioxide Dryers (CO2 Dryers) are therefore normally custom made, to meet specific project requirements. Several versions are available, based on operating pressure, temperature, requested pressure dew point and level of humidity. Depending on this last criteria, the dryer's materials will need to be modified.
The type of regeneration is Heat Regenerated. Depending on the existence and type of available fluids to conduct this regeneration/cooling, we then adapt the components of the CO2 Dryer, to ensure that a strict minimum of gas will be lost during the regeneration phase.
CO2-R-DRY is a Heat Regenerated CO2 Adsorption Dryer, with working pressures from 5 to 11 bar.
CO2-HP-R-DRY is a Heat Regenerated CO2 Adsorption Dryer, with working pressures up to 50 bar.
