How are deliquescent desiccants and gas dryers used in the natural gas industry?
GasDry desiccants have a variety of applications in the natural gas industry. GasDry deliquescent desiccants are prized for the simplicity of their application. A desiccant gas dryer has no moving parts, except for a drain valve, and requires no power for operation. This means that deliquescent desiccants are ideal for remote gas drying applications. GasDry deliquescent desiccants are often used to dry fuel gas for compressors, generating sets, turbines, heaters, and other gas-fired equipment at remote locations where untreated natural gas is relied on as a fuel source. Desiccants from Van Gas Technologies are also used to dry small flows of instrument and control gas. In many cases, GasDry desiccants are used to dry sales gas and meet pipeline moisture specifications. Owners of small residential natural gas wells can affordably dehydrate gas with minimal expertise and expense. Unlike TEG dehydrators, deliquescent desiccant dehydration systems use no fuel gas, have no pumps, or burners
