Ethanol Drying is basically a process for removing water molecules or something equivalent to water molecules from any substance. Ethanol is drying to obtain ethylene and water when it is heated with catalyst of concentrated sulfuric acid. The ethane gas produced is collected over water and tests are done. This is to find out the typical properties possessed by the unsaturated hydrocarbon. For the dehydration of ethanol one likely product is ethane. In industry this term basically means removing water or moisture from the solution of ethanol which is a result of fragmentation. However, one of the most important dehydration is the dehydration of alcohol from phenyl ethanol.
In the process of ethanol dehydration using molecular sieves 3A Zeolite molecular sieves is used to absorb the water content from ethanol. This absorbent is crystalline form of amino silicates. It has a unique structure which allows crystallized water to be removed and end the end left is a porous crystalline structure. If a polar compound fluid has to be absorbed it can easily be absorbed with the help of low concentration fluid. Molecular sieves have strong absorptive force which allows it to easily remove impurities from gasses or liquids. Having strong ionic forces which is a result of the presence of cations like calcium, sodium and potassium.
