摘要

A METHOD FOR REMOVING LOW CONCENTRATIONS OF OXIDIZABLE ORGANIC CONTAMINANTS FROM AN OXYGEN-CONTAINING INERT GAS A method for removing low concentrations of oxidizable organic contaminants from an oxygen containing inert gas comprises: (1) adsorbing the contaminants on a sorptive media which contains an oxidation catalyst in a reaction zone;(2) interrupting the flow of the gas through said sorptive media; (3) thermally desorbing the adsorbed contaminants; (4) oxidizing the desorbed contaminants to innocuous reaction products; and (5) venting and purging the reaction products from the reaction zone.
