A system is provided for removing ethylene oxide from a gaseous stream without the need for large quantities of a liquid heat sink. A vessel is provided containing an aqueous acid solution and having a gas diffusion means submerged in the solution. The gaseous stream from which the ethylene oxide is to be removed is continuously diffused through the gas diffusion means and bubbles out of the acid solution while the inert essentially ethylene oxide free gas is continuously removed from above the solution. |
