Please any can tell me about the following
1. Can we lay instrument air underground?
2. If we can lay it underground then what material we can use?
3. If we can lay it underground then what type of coating and wrapping can be used?
4. If we can install it underground then how we can remove the moisture from it?

All the Instrument Air I have worked around has been run through an Air Dryer and its Dewpoint Temperature has been reduced to 5-10 Deg.F. below the temperature of any condition it plumbing runs through.

That means there will be no condensation in the pipes throughout the system.

Look at Air Dryer suppliers in the "Designers Guide" on a link on the Home Page of this forum.

The other questions I cannot answer since I never do any actual plumbing installations.
