Closed-loop thermal regeneration of adsorbents containing reactive adsorbates

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5143745
This paper discusses a method for the thermal regeneration of an adsorbent. The adsorbent contains one or more adsorbed reactive components which can react with and damage the adsorbent during regeneration. It comprises passing at a regeneration temperature a regeneration gas which is essentially free of the reactive components through a bed of the adsorbent which initially contains the adsorbed reactive components at a temperature less than the regeneration temperature whereby the adsorbed reactive components are desorbed, and withdrawing therefrom a purge effluent stream.
