Abstract: The need for water removal from natural gas is obvious. Over the years a number of processes have been developed to accomplish this function. One of the more widely used processes applies the principle of physical adsorption of water vapor on a solid desiccant. The desiccants used all have in common the fact that fantastic surface areas are presented in a relatively small volume. As an example, one manufacturer has calculated that one half of a cub. inch of material presents a surface area equal to the size of a football field. A number of desiccant types are commercial available and include activated alumina, alumina gel, molecular sieves and silica gel. In some respects, calcium chloride can be considered a dry desiccant and will be touched on briefly.
