Wherever there is compressed air, there is moisture. Ambient air naturally contains water vapor, and when it’s drawn into a compressor and pressurized, that vapor becomes highly concentrated. As the hot compressed air cools, the vapor condenses into liquid water, leading to corrosion, contamination, and equipment failure if not properly…
In the world of compressed air systems, the choice between desiccant and refrigerated air dryers is critical. These systems play a vital role in various industrial and manufacturing processes by removing moisture from compressed air. Understanding the differences, capabilities, and applications of each dryer type is essential for optimal system…
Traditionally, oil and gas operators used methane driven devices because of the abundance of natural gas available for their valves and the operation of safety devices. However, when those instrumentation actuates they release methane emissions into the atmosphere. With more growing concern on green energy and emission reduction more and…
With the summer ending and cooler months upon us, it’s that time those that use our 10BF for the dehydration of Natural Gas may think to start refilling their deliquescent dryers with desiccant. 10BF is the most effective deliquescent desiccant from Van Air Systems. Formulated primarily for the dehydration of…

Did you know our deliquescent dryers can be used for Whiskey Distillery? This article is a great example that shows it’s not always the compressor losing efficiency. Your compressed air system may be the weakest link! Making sure you have the best-compressed air dryer, and filters for the job would…
We hear many different comments about our Deliquescent Dryers. One of the foremost common misconceptions we hear about our dryers is that they are challenging to Maintain. This is one misconception we want to squash right here and now. Deliquescent dryers require the least amount of maintenance out of any…
Big E-Services performs oilfield cementing. The cement is “dry” mixed with additives at their bulk plant before being transported to multiple oil well sites where it is blended with water and pumped downhole for their customers. Big E uses compressed air as their primary utility. It provides the needed mode…
Deliquescent dryers are very versatile and can be used in so many different applications. One market in which our compressed air dryers often serve but is rarely spoken about is the food industry. Compressed Air is essential to the food and beverage manufacturing industry as it helps provide clean and…
Desiccant doesn’t last forever, regardless of the type of compressed air dryer that you have. All desiccant needs to be replaced or replenished eventually. However, a few things have to be pinned down before deciding what material is most appropriate for the dryer. What Type of Dryer is it? Most…
