Which molecular sieve is best for oxygen concentrator?

The key to PSA(Pressure Swing Adsorption) gas separation technology is the choice of adsorbent. The performance of the adsorbent directly affects the final separation performance, and even affects the selection of process steps and the vitality of PSA. 

Usually, PSA oxygen production uses A-type and X-type molecular sieves, but because of its low separation selectivity and small nitrogen adsorption capacity, the development of PSA oxygen production technology is restricted. Based on this situation, many companies are actively conducting research, development and promotion of new oxygen generation adsorbents.

Libra LiX molecular sieve is our actively developing and promoting adsorbent for Oxygen production.

As we all know, the basis of pressure swing adsorption oxygen production is molecular sieve. The N2 equilibrium adsorption capacity and separation coefficient of lithium low-silicon oxygen production molecular sieves are more than 2 times that of traditional oxygen-enriched adsorbents (see Table 1), and the adsorption rate is also much higher than that of traditional oxygen-enriched adsorbents.

How our Libra LiX molecular sieve replaced traditional molecular sieve in a metallurgical plant?

Ca5A molecular sieve had been replaced by Libra LiX molecular sieve in a metallurgical plant without changing PSA process condition and energy consumption in 2021.

Here is the detailed information about the replacement:

The daily ore processing capacity of the smelting furnace has increased by more than 20% compared with that before the replacement.

It is proved that Libra LiX molecular sieve and service could benefit you and increase profit for you.
