LF838 Molecular Sieve 13X
1 Use
LF838 is used for purification of air feed gas (removal of H2O, CO2 and acetylene); drying and sulfur removal of natural gas, LPG and liquid hydrocarbons; drying of common gas and water and CO2 removal in production of O2 from air.
2 Regeneration
LF838 may be regenerated and reused by purging or vacuum at elevated temperature, the degree of regeneration is determined by regenerating temperature and regenerating humidity.
3 Technical parameters
Technical parameters of LF838 Molecular sieve 13X are seen in Table 1.
