  Packing  
   
   
Activated Alumina is packed for industrial use in airtight MS drums under hot condition with proper sealing arrangement so that there is no ingress of moisture during storage and transportation. Standard PAcking: 210 Lit drum size 565 x 850 (H) mm.
 
       
  Life  
    Activated Alumina has infinite shelf life, when stored in packed condition. The active service life would depend, however, on the operating conditions if the plant, actual application, and the usage by the customer.  
       
  Loading  
    Activated Alumina does not require any special precaution or procedure during loading. However the health of the grid support is to be cleaned of dust, foreign particles, etc. before the adsorbent is loaded. During actual loading, the material should be poured carefully through funnel and chute so as to avoid dusting and attrition. The drums should not be kept in open condition, as the adsorbent would adsorb moisture. In case of prolonged exposure of the adsorbent to moisture during storage/loading, it may require prolonged regeneration at higher temperature to restore its full adsorptive capacity.  
       
  Material Safety Data  
    The product as such is neither inflammable, not toxic. Over all, it is not hazardous. Repeated exposure may irritate skin, eyes and respiratory system. The product gets hot as it is first exposed to atmosphere due to adsorption of moisture.  
       
  Regeneration  
    Activated Alumina should be regenerated before first use. The regeneration temperature range from 110o to 150o C. The higher the regeneration temperature, the linger the operating cycle time and the lower the exit dew point if the gas. Where high efficiency is needed (dew point better than 50oC), a regeneration temperature of at least 150oC  is required. If the regeneration gas is wet, a higher regeneration temperature of 200o-250oC is required. For a better performance over prolonged period, GMGB's Activated aLumina should not be exposed to temperatures above 350oC repeatedly.  
       
  Application  
    Air Drying for Dew Point of less than (minus) 40o C  
    Drying of Feed Air to N2-O2 Cryogenic Plant  
    Purification of Process Stream by removing HF (LAB Plant), Chloride / HCl from contaminated gas flow.
