ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are improved recirculating sorption bed systems, e.g., rotary beds, of the type consisting of a mass of sorbent material in which one section is in sorption duty while another section is being regenerated thermally. The sorption beds may be operated to reduce heat consumption while simultaneously producing a more sorbate-free product by utilizing sensible heat added to the bed during regeneration to supply a portion of the heat or desorption required to reactivate the bed. In one embodiment, the bed system features a recirculation loop which circulates fluid between a pair of regions interposed between the edge of the sorption duty and regeneration regions. In other embodiments the bed system includes means for directing a portion of the effluent generated in early stages of the sorption duty region to supplement hot regenerant in the regeneration region and/or includes means for directing effluent generated in early stages of the regeneration region to supplement the feed in late stages of the sorption duty region.
