ACTIVATED ALUMINA BALLS
ACTIVATED ALUMINA BALLS, mainly Al2O3, is a versatile Aluminum Oxide, prepared by dehydration of Aluminium Hydroxide in temperatures of 300 - 600OC.It acts as one important adsorbent media for Arsenic and Fluoride removal from Water. It finds use in drying and conditioning of a number of gases and liquids, i.e., removal of moisture, oil and other impurities from air in industries.

Used for a wide range of adsorbent and catalyst application, it is a selective adsorbent for removal of impurities like arsenics and fluoride from drinking water. Used for drying of air, gases and liquid, Purification and conditioning of insulating oil and industrial oils. Also used in gaseous and liquid desiccation in petrochemical industry, dryer in textile industry and pharmaceutical industries.
