Gas cooling and gas drying

Many processes of gas purification require cooling and drying of the gas stream.

Some gases contain water vapor, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and other undesirable corollary elements. These elements cause corrosion damage in pipelines, fittings and units or interfere with the purification process. Additionally, excessive humidity of gas leads to a rise in pore condensation and to a considerable deterioration of adsorptive capacity of the activated carbon. In order to effectively clean the gas through activated carbon, drying the gas in advance is absolutely necessary.

High gas temperatures cause so-called desorption effects in the process of gas purification, which means that pollutants are driven away from the activated carbon due to high temperatures.

In all the previously described cases, a gas cooling or drying is required. In this process, the gas is cooled down and desiccated in an appropriately dimensioned heat exchanger connected to a water chiller. When falling below dew point temperature, the water vapor condensates. The emerging condensate is collected and separated at the bottom of the gas cooler or dryer.

BROCKHAUS ENVIRONMENT Policy:

The technical planning and implementation of our system solutions for the cooling and drying of gas are carried out by our skilled staff whose aim is to find an individual and cost-oriented solution.

In order to offer maximum efficiency and effectiveness, BROCKHAUS ENVIRONMENT uses powerful heat exchangers in connection with fittingly dimensioned water chillers to run the drying plants. Whether built into a container or onto a base frame- the customer decides.
