Why Does Compressed Air Require a Dryer?
“Why does the compression process always produce moisture?” “Moisture contamination in my compressed air is fouling processes, products and equipment downstream.” These are commonly heard complaints when organizations utilize compressed air and fail to support downstream processes and equipment with moisture removal systems. Thus, the question arises “Why does compressed…
Different Types of Dryer Systems
I am often asked about the different dryer systems available, and it’s a great question for anyone looking to install a new compressed air dryer or upgrade an existing system. My typical response is, “What are you doing with your compressed air?”—which helps determine the level of performance needed. The…

From Farm to Glass: The Role of Compressed Air Dryers in Dairy Processing
Every morning, many of us pour a big bowl of cereal and top it off with a splash of milk. When we think of milk, the image that often comes to mind is the iconic black-and-white dairy cow grazing on a sunny farm. However, what we often overlook is the…
What is Molecular Sieve?
Molecular sieve is a highly specialized desiccant designed for applications where precise moisture control is essential. Molecular sieve is composed of sodium aluminosilicate beads with fixed pore sizes, allowing it to trap moisture molecules based on their size. Unlike more common desiccants such as deliquescent or absorbent types, molecular sieve…
