To eliminate CO2, CO, H2S, CS2 and hydrocarbons from air to be liquified and rectified.
For complete purification of oxygen and for air separation with PSA - processes.
To dry and to purify natural gas.
For adsorption separation of normal alkanes from branched and cyclic hydrocarbons in vapour or liquid phase.
In gas chromatography.
As filling for cryo-sorptive vacuum pumps.
To purify and to dry protective atmospheres of synthesis gas, gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons, noble gases, Na2O and hydrogen.


General Characteristics:

CALSIT is synthetic zeolite of type 5A having pore size of 0,5 nm. Molecular sieves are crystalline aluminosilicates of alkali metals or alkaline earth metals. They have a three-dimensional crystal lattice with basic structural units of SiO-4 a AlO-4 tetrahedrons so arranged, that regular alternating cavities are formed. The size of the intracrystalline cavities and of the intake openings - the pores to the cavities - are characteristic for the individual types of molecular sieves.
CALSIT has 60 - 70% of sodium ions exchanges by calcium. Its chemical composition in dehydrated state is given by the formula: CaO . Na2O . Al2O3 . 2 SiO2.

  RAK43 - equlibrium adosrption capacity
This parameter is determining the capability of the zeolite to adsorb water vapour from air at 25° C and with 43% of relative humidity. The value is expressed as; water grams per 100 grams of anhydrous zeolite.
  V 30 - cylindrical extrudates with 3,0 mm diameter


Packaging and Storage:

Zeolites are packed and supplied in 20 litres or 200 litres metallic packages. The maximum water content in granulated packed products is 1,5% wt.
