Introduction Click to copy section linkSection link copied! Desiccants used in industry are typically dehydrated through temperature swing adsorption. High temperatures of 200–250 °C are required for molecular sieve; (1,2) less aggressive conditions suffice for dessicants such as silica gel (3), where solar dryers can even be used. The energy burden for regeneration is high because the water is removed evaporatively.
