Abstract

Abstract An adsorption apparatus whith a good heat recovery and a good noise abatement for separating a gas mixture into its components by pressure swing adsorption comprises a closed vessel (1) having an inlet nozzle (5) for a gas mixture (4) at one end, an adsorbent packed as a bed (2) in the closed vessel (1) and a passage (3) for an unadsorbed gas being vertically provided in the vessel (1) through the adsorbent bed (2), whose one end is open above the top of the adsorbent bed (2) and whose another end passes through the closed vessel (1) at the inlet nozzle side to the outside.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 96 words
An adsorption apparatus for separating a gas mixture into its components by pressure swing adsorption, comprising a closed vessel (1) having an inlet nozzle (5) for a gas mixture (4) at one end, and adsorbent packed as a bed (2) in the closed vessel (1), and a passage (3) for an unadsorbed gas being vertically provided in the vessel (1) through the adsorbent bed (2) whose one end is open above the top of the adsorbent bed (2) and whose another end passes through the closed vessel (1) at the inlet nozzle side to the outside.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 96 words
An adsorption apparatus for separating a gas mixture into its components by pressure swing adsorption, comprising a closed vessel (1) having an inlet nozzle (5) for a gas mixture (4) at one end, and adsorbent packed as a bed (2) in the closed vessel (1), and a passage (3) for an unadsorbed gas being vertically provided in the vessel (1) through the adsorbent bed (2) whose one end is open above the top of the adsorbent bed (2) and whose another end passes through the closed vessel (1) at the inlet nozzle side to the outside.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 58 words
An adsorption apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the passage (3) comprises a main standing pipe whose one end is open at the outside of the vessel (1) and whose another end is connected to a plurality of branched pipes having openings above the top of the adsorbent bed (2) and being provided through the adsorbent bed (2).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
An adsorption apparatus according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the closed vessel (1) is in a cylindrical column form.
