In theory an oil less air compressor and refrigerated shop air dryer
would work if you are willing to buy them and pay for the kwh of
electricity. My shop dryer is good for 40 d F dew point air at 150 psi
which when expanded to ambient 14.7 psi has a dew point of -10 d F (I
found an on-line calculator at
http://www.dew-point.com/dew-point_calculator.asp) (an interesting fact
- why wet things can be dried so quickly with a shop air blow gun, I
didn't know that ambient value).
that's also why you have to drain the condensate from your compressor's
receiver.
