There is a relocation project involving tank areas of Category A and B (such as xylene, butyl acetate, etc.), and air dryers have been installed there, as shown in the diagram. Dear experts, could you please explain the principle behind these air dryers?
The basic principle of an air dryer is to use an adsorbent to absorb moisture from the air, thereby making the air drier. Since the items stored in Class A and B tank areas have high requirements regarding humidity, air dryers are needed to reduce the humidity in the environment, thereby ensuring the quality of the stored items. In this air dryer, possible adsorbents include materials such as silica gel and activated carbon. As air passes through the adsorbent, the moisture in it is absorbed by the adsorbent, thereby achieving dehumidification. And when the adsorbent becomes saturated, it needs to be dried or replaced. .
