Natural Gas Dryers

Single-Tower Deliquescent Pipeline Dryers
The Van Gas Technologies PLD is a single-tower deliquescent dryer which offers a simple and economical solution for gas dehydration. The dryer vessel has a large claim area, where the gas enters and liquids are separated and collected. The gas then flows up through the deliquescent desiccant tablets, which slowly dissolve as they remove moisture vapor from the gas.

Natural Gas Regenerative Dryer
Van Gas HLSX gas dryer is a regenerative desiccant dryer which delivers -40ºF line-pressure dewpoint. Electrical components are housed in explosion proof enclosures for operation in hazardous areas. No yellow metals are used in the construction of the HLSX series dryers. Standard sizes are 55, 80, 120, and 150 SCFM, with 280 PSIG maximum working pressure.

Instrument Gas Dryers
The Van Gas Instrument Gas Dryer is supplied with color indicating silica gel, which requires periodic replacement. No power is required, making it suitable for remote installations and hazardous applications. The housing is carbon steel with a corrosion resistant coating.

Fuel Gas Dryers
Van Gas Technologies fuel gas dryers are designed to protect your engines from damage caused by wet gas. Available in numerous flow capacities, no electricity is required, making these dryers ideal for remote locations.

Desiccants
Van Gas Technologies is the worldwide leader in the development of deliquescent desiccants for drying natural gas. These absorbent desiccants are available in three different formulations: GasDry Prime provides 55% RH in the gas, GasDry Peak provides 33% RH, and GasDry Max provides 13% RH. Van Gas Technologies also supplies the highest quality regenerative desiccants activated alumina, molecular sieve, and silica gel.
