Used as a highly effective adsorbent in purification and drying processes across industries. Commonly applied in gas drying systems to remove moisture from air, natural gas, and process gases due to its strong affinity for water. Employed in liquid purification, including the removal of contaminants from organic solvents, transformer oils, and drinking water. Also utilized in chromatography as a stationary phase for separating polar compounds. Its high surface area and porous structure make it ideal for catalyst support in chemical reactions, especially in petrochemical refining and environmental catalysis. Additionally, used in pharmaceuticals for purifying drugs and in air separation units to dry gases before cryogenic processing.
