What is Heat of compression ?
Energy
Conservation by Heat
of Compression type compressed air dryer is a breakthrough in compressed
air drying technology. it is the most energy saving economical & cheapest
equipment for making air dry. The hot
air from the oil-free air Compressor at 120°C or higher temp, is used directly for
regeneration of the desiccant bed in the compressed air dryer. After regeneration, this air is cooled down to
40°C in the water cooled after cooler and then it is dried in second tower. Thus the use of heaters is
eliminated. For example. in the 6 + 6 Hrs. Cycle the hot air is fed for regeneration
of desiccant bed for 4 Hrs. and for balance 2 Hr. a changeover takes place where the air is
first cooled in an after cooler, then dried and before going to the outlet, cools the
regenerated desiccant bed, thus bringing it down to ambient temperature. This
cycle is reversed for the next 6 Hrs. where the Adsorber drying the air in the
previous cycle goes for regeneration and vice versa.
There is considerable power saving in these heat of compression Air Dryers and the dew point is also better than the Refrigerated type of Compressed Air Dryers .

Main Advantage of Heat of
Compression Type Compressed air dryer is the energy conservation and heat
recovery achieved which is being wasted in After cooler in the conventional
air dryers is now used to reactivate
the desiccant.
