ABSTRACT:
An adsorption system, such as a composite drier-bed, having at least two distinct adsorption regions for simultaneously drying and removing metallic/inorganic and organic forms of mercury from a fluid including a container having an entrance area and an exit area; a distinct first region located within said container and proximal to said entrance area of a porous substrate having elemental silver associated therewith; and a distinct second region adjacent thereto of a porous substrate having elemental gold associated therewith. The first region substantially removes water and metallic forms of mercury and the second region substantially removes organic forms of mercury and residual water from said fluid. A method of removing both metallic and organic mercury simultaneously with water as well as a means for regenerating the drier-bed is also disclosed.
