Ethanol

Ethanol dehydration: no worries

With ethanol production growing rapidly worldwide, you need high-quality dehydration products that provide long-life performance. Dehydration molecular sieves often are mistakenly overlooked in the production of ethanol. UOP understands the critical importance molecular sieve adsorbents have in this process.

With decades of experience, we have developed MOLSIV^TM 3A-AG and 3A-AGS molecular sieve adsorbents with high water capacity, low reactivity and the product consistency for which we’re now famous. Our new bead even demonstrates superior stability following unit upsets, allowing faster return to on-spec production.

These adsorbents are alkali alumino-silicate molecular sieves that selectively adsorb water and exclude molecules, like ethanol. UOP has unparalleled molecular sieve experience. From research and development to manufacturing to technical consultation and service, we offer the right solutions to meet your needs.
