Abstract
Disclosed are processes and systems for the removal of water from a feed stream utilizing swing adsorption processes including an adsorbent bed comprising an adsorbent material which is a cationic zeolite RHO. The cationic zeolite RHO comprises at least one, preferably two, metal cations selected from Group 1 and 2 elements (new Group 1-18 IUPAC numbering). The swing adsorption processes and systems utilizing the cationic zeolite RHO have an adsorption selectivity for water and are useful in selective dehydration of commercial feed streams. The cationic zeolite RHO additionally has an exceptionally high water adsorption stability for use in feed streams with wet acid gas environments operating under cyclic swing adsorption conditions.
