Introduction
Atmospheric air naturally contains impurities such as dust, hydrocarbons, and humidity. When compressed, these impurities can form abrasive and corrosive emulsions that damage distribution lines, pneumatic devices, and products, leading to air leakages, increased maintenance costs, production decreases, and loss of product quality.
