VORRICHTUNG ZUR REGENERATION VON ADSORPTIONSMITTELN

摘要

An adsorber vessel (24) for use in the adsorption of a component from a gas and subsequent regeneration by thermally induced desorption of said component comprises an inlet for regeneration gas having an inlet nozzle (40) containing at least one heater element (48), and an outlet for regeneration gas, said inlet and outlet for regeneration gas being separated by a flow path including a flow chamber containing a body of adsorbent (28), and wherein said body of adsorbent (28) has a first end which is adjacent said inlet for regeneration gas and a second end which is remote from said inlet for regeneration gas, and the or each heater element (48) is located so as not to penetrate through said first end of the body of adsorbent (28).
