Product description

The pore size of 13x molecular sieve(APG) is about 10 A. It can adsorb any molecular smaller than 10 A mainly used as catalyst carrier, coadsorbtion of CO2 and H2O and H2S as desiccant for medical and air compressor systems and can also be adjusted to fit other various applications.

Applications

Typical Application:
1. Purification and removal of H2O and CO2
2. Dehydration and desulfuration of nature gas, liquid petrol gas and liquid alkane
3. H2S and sulphide removal for hydrocarbons and natural gas.
4. Catalyst support
5. Deep drying of common gases

Where it is used

MOLECULAR SIEVE 13X (10A)
 
Molecular sieves are synthetic zeolites (complex alumino-silicates of sodium, potassium or calcium) of various pore sizes, When the water of hydration is driven off which result in an empty network called pores / cavities. Due to their unique crystal structure the cavaities and pores are precisely uniform in size which selectively adsorb molecules of a specific size. This strong adsorptive force allows molecular sieves to remove many gas or liquid impurities to ppm or less levels. Our Molecular sieve exhibits high resistance to attrition and physical damage during service.
 
The sodium form of 13X(10A) represents the basic structure of the type X family, with an effective pore opening of -7.2 angstrom which can be stretchable up to -10 angstrom diameter range.

Major Applications: Type 13X is uesed commercially for general gas drying, air plant feed purification (simultaneous removal of H2O and CO2) and liquid hydrocarban and natural gas sweetening (H2S and mercapstan removal). A;; molecules which can not be adsorbed on type 13X. In addition, type 13X can adsorb molecules of larger critical diameters, such as aromatics and branched-chain hydrocarbons.

Dosage

Molecular Sieve 13X  is a multiple purpose, highly porous, high capacity alkali metal alumino-silicate in the spherical form. It is the sodium form of the Type X crystal structure with pore diameters of approximately 10Å. It can adsorb all molecules that can be adsorbed by 3A, 4A, and 5A molecular sieve. Type 13X molecular sieve can also adsorb molecules such as aromatics and branched-chain hydrocarbons, which have large critical diameters.

13X-APG adsorbent is the sodium form of the Type X molecular sieve and an alkali metal aluminosilicate. 13X-APG adsorbent will adsorb molecules with critical diameters up to 8 angstroms.

Notes

Formula:
Na2O*Al2O3*(2.8+/-0.2)SiO2*(6-7)H2O
 
Attention:
To avoid damp and pre-adsorption of organics before running or must to be reactivated.

Remarks

13X-APG adsorbent is specifically developed for air plant feed purification. It has a high capacity for carbon dioxide and water and maintains its capacity well above ambient conditions. It is available in a variety of shapes and sizes to suit your operating needs. In addition, 13X-APG adsorbent can adsorb molecules, such as olefins, aromatics, straight and branch chain hydrocarbons, SOx, and NOx compounds.
