Problems solved by technology

[0005]The disadvantage of this known method is that when the compressor is switched on again after a period of inactivity or a period of idling, the dried gas temporarily has an increased Humidity level, i.e. increased pressure dew point

Embodiment Construction

[0027] figure 1 A device 1 for drying gas from a compressor 2 according to the invention is represented.

[0028] The outlet of the compressor 2 is connected via a compressed gas line 3 and an aftercooler 4 which will be realized hereinafter to the plant 1, which consists essentially of a dryer 5 of the type described in BE 1,005,764, which is divided into drying Zone 7 and regeneration zone 8 consist of an air reservoir 6 with a rotatable drying element 9 consisting of a tubular rotor in which the adsorbent can be flowed through. and / or an absorption medium which alternately passes through the drying zone 7 and the regeneration zone 8 by means of a drive 11 .

[0029] The regeneration zone 8 is formed by a part of the drying container 6 which is separated from the drying zone 7 by means of partitions 12 , 13 , 14 .

[0030] Between the inlet 15 of the drying zone 7 and the compressed gas line 3 there is a gas mixing device 16 , which in this example has been integrated in ...

Abstract

Method for drying gas coming from a compressor (2), which is directed through a drier (5) of the type which consists of an air receiver (6) and a drying element (9) in the form of a rotor in which has been provided an adsorption and / or absorption medium (10) which is alternately guided through a drying zone (7) and a regeneration zone (8) of the air receiver (6), whereby during periods of standstill or of idle running of the compressor (2) a gas flow is guided counterflow through the adsorption and / or absorption medium (10) in the drying zone (7), i.e. in a flow direction (P) from the outlet (22) to the inlet (15) of the drying zone (7).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an improved method for drying a gas, more particularly for drying a gas coming from a compressor. [0002] Background technique [0003] It is known to dry the gas from the compressor by first cooling it and then guiding it through drying elements with adsorption and / or absorption media. [0004] For this known method, it is also known to place the adsorption and / or absorption medium in a drier alternately through a so-called drying zone and a so-called regeneration zone, whereby the adsorption and / or absorption medium is regenerated in the regeneration zone . [0005] For this purpose, according to known methods, a part of the guided gas to be dried is used without first being cooled for the adsorption and / or absorption medium in the regeneration zone, whereby the adsorption and / or absorption medium absorbs moisture. [0006] A disadvantage of this known method is that when the compressor is switched on again after a...
