Description
ACTIVATED ALUMINA:
Activated alumina, a porous form of aluminum oxide (Al2O3), is a highly adsorbent material with numerous practical applications. Activated alumina is a highly porous, solid form of aluminum oxide that is produced by dehydroxylating aluminum hydroxide. The activation process removes the water content from the material, resulting in a large surface area and abundant adsorption sites. These characteristics make it an excellent choice for applications requiring adsorption, purification, and catalysis. The product is a white, spherical porous material with the property of non-toxic, odorless, insoluble in water and ethanol. The particle size is uniform, the surface is smooth, the mechanical strength is high, the ability of moisture absorption is strong and the ball is not split after absorbing water.
The particle size can be 1-3mm, 3-5mm, 4-6mm, 5-8mm & also customized size according to client’s requirements.
Applications of Activated Alumina Ball:
Widely used in several industries such as Petrochemical, Chemical, Textile, Metallurgy, Pharmaceutical etc.
- Desiccant:
Drying gases and liquids: Activated alumina efficiently removes moisture from compressed air, natural gas, refrigerants, and industrial gas streams. This protects equipment from corrosion and improves product quality.
- Adsorbent:
Water treatment: It removes fluoride, arsenic, lead, and other contaminants from drinking water, making it safe and potable.
Pollution control: It removes sulfur dioxide and other pollutants from flue gases in power plants and other industrial facilities.
Catalysis: It acts as a catalyst in various chemical reactions, including polyethylene and hydrogen peroxide production.
- Other uses:
Chromatography: It separates different components in mixtures based on their adsorption properties.
Vacuum systems: It traps oil vapors in pumps to maintain high vacuum conditions.
Insulation: It provides high-temperature insulation in some industrial applications.
Decolorization: It is extensively used for the reuse and azo dye extraction from clothes called decolorization in the textile industry.
