Activated Alumina is a family of aluminum oxides (Al2O3) used as a desiccant, or drying agent, for industrial liquids and gases such as air, nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and hydrocarbons.

Activated alumina is used for a wide range of adsorbent and catalyst applications including the adsorption of catalysts in polyethylene production, in hydrogen peroxide production, as a selective adsorbent for many chemicals including arsenic, fluoride, and sulfur removal from gas streams (Claus Catalyst process). Finally Activated Alumina is also used as a filter for fluoride, arsenic, and selenium in drinking water.

Activated alumina is both high surface area beads and crushed products that are "activated" by a proprietary process to achieve specific surface chemistry and reactivity. Commonly used as adsorbents, desiccants, and catalysts, the chemistry, size, and structure of this alumina are tailored to specific applications Additives are also commonly used with activated alumina to achieve even greater performance in certain applications e.g. removal of sulfur and chloride in refinery applications.

Application
 
1. Desiccant/Dehydration.
2. Hydrogen peroxide manufacturing.
3. Polyethylene production.
4. Defluorination of alkylation product streams.
5. Water treatment (fluoride and arsenic removal).
6. Aqueous treatment (removal of hydrogen sulphide, carbonyl chloride, and hydrogen chloride).
7. Off-gas treatment (carbon dioxide, hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen sulphide removal).
8. Removal of alcohol and ether from liquid streams.

Vacuum systems

In high vacuum applications, activated alumina is used as a charge material in fore-line traps to prevent oil generated by rotary vane pumps from backstreaming into the system. A baffle of activated alumina can also replace the refrigerated trap often required for diffusion pumps, though this is rarely used.

Biomaterial

Its mechanical properties and non-reactivity in the biological environment allow it to be a suitable material used to cover surfaces in friction in body prostheses (e.g. hip or shoulder prostheses).

Defluoridation

Defluoridation is the downward adjustment of the level of fluoride in drinking water. The activated Alumina process is one of the widely used adsorption methods for the defluoridation of drinking water.

Catalyst applications

Activated alumina is used for a wide range of adsorbent and catalyst applications including the adsorption of catalysts in polyethylene production, in hydrogen peroxide production, as a selective adsorbent for many chemicals including arsenic, fluoride, in sulfur removal from fluid streams (Claus Catalyst process).

Desiccant

Used as a desiccant, it works by a process called adsorption. The water in the air actually sticks to the alumina itself in between the tiny passages as the air passes through them. The water molecules become trapped so that the air is dried out as it passes through the filter. This process is reversible. If the alumina desiccant is heated to ~200 °C, it will release the trapped water. This process is called regenerating the desiccant.
