13X molecular sieve, also known as 13x zeolite, is a kind of synthetic zeolite with a specific pore size and structure that makes it highly effective for a variety of applications.

Here are some common uses:

1. Gas separation and purification:

• used to separate nitrogen from oxygen in air separation plants;
• natural gas processing: removes water, CO2 and other impurities from natural gas streams;
• is used in variable pressure adsorption (PSA) systems to purify hydrogen by removing impurities such as CO, CO2 and water;

2. Drying and dehydration:

• air drying, namely the removal of moisture from compressed air supply systems;
• drying of liquids - dehydration of various liquids such as ethanol and solvents in chemical processes;
• gas dehydration, removal of moisture from gases, e.g. in cooling and air conditioning systems;

3. Catalysis.

Acts as a catalyst or catalyst support in various chemical reactions due to its large surface area and porous structure.

4. Applications in the field of environmental protection:

• VOC removal: adsorbs volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from industrial emissions;
• Water purification: removes pollutants such as heavy metals and organic compounds from water.

5. Pharmaceutical and chemical industry:

• used in the synthesis and purification of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals;
• adsorbs impurities and unwanted by-products of chemical reactions.

6. Gas storage:

• used in gas cylinders for the safe storage and transportation of gases such as oxygen and hydrogen by adsorption by sieve pores;

The 13X molecular sieve was selected for this application due to its high adsorption capacity, selectivity, thermal stability and regeneration capability.
