A complete portfolio for various applications
Molecular sieves are used as desiccants to control water content and allow users to reach extremely low specifications. They are also used for selective adsorption of chemical compounds to separate these molecules from liquids and gases.
Beyond water adsorption application as a desiccant, Siliporite® molecular sieves constitute a complete range of adsorption agents for the following sectors:
- Medical oxygen (Nitroxy® range)
- Pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food applications
- Industrial gas applications: Air separation units and PSA type units (Airsiev® range)
- Oil and gas applications
- Drying of ethanol
- Drying and purification of biogas
- Hydrogen purification
- Production of Liquefied Natural Gas
- Separation of xylenes
- Refrigerants
- Double glazing (powder and beads)
- Coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers
