Molecular Sieves are effective to remove moisture from Liquid!

Molecular Sieves
Molecular sieves are excellent desiccants and are very effective in removing moisture from liquid, semi-liquid or gaseous substances. They are said to be even more effective than silica gel or activated alumina. The reason for their popularity is their crystalline composition which helps to create more moisture free products. Molecular sieves prove to be very useful in many cryogenic operations because this process requires gases to be converted into liquid form and in the process even a minute amount of water has to be extracted out in order to avoid freezing. According to the requirement you have different variants bases on its molecular size. As the molecular size increases it gets more surface area to absorb humidity. The variants available are 3A, 4A, 4A indicating molecular sieves, 5A and 13X.
