Natural gas dehydration at low pressures and low flow rates can be very difficult. Most conventional salt-type desiccants, are unable to adequately dry gas under very low pressures (<75 psi) or when stringent pipeline specifications (<7 lbs. H2O/MMCF) must be met.
Xentrite was developed to meet dew points where other desiccants or glycols cannot.
Xentrite can be used by itself or in combination with other grades of desiccant, such as Clearwaters’ Desiccant SG & RG. In this application the natural gas flows through the Desiccant RG or SG first, removing the majority of the moisture, and then through the Xentrite to further reduce dew points.
Xentrite tablets have several advantages over other low pressure gas drying options.
• 7 lb/MMCF attainable @ 50 psi & 60°F.
• 20 lb/MMCF attainable @ 25 psi & 80°F.
• Dryer gas for less cost than even glycol towers, in many instances.
• Hard dense tablets resist caking, channeling, blooming and dusting.
• Proprietary formula means greater activity, longer life and lower dew points.
• Convenient, easily resealable packaging.
• Greater hygroscopicity means more water removed per pound of desiccant.
DANGER! Release dryer pressure before refilling!
Xentrite may be a skin irritant. Rubber or plastic gloves are recommended. It may also irritate the eye. First Aid: Skin- Wash with soap and water. Eye-Flush with a large volume of fresh water. If irritated get medical attention. Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheet.
