ABSTRACT:
A dual-chambered, four-ported rotary valve with a rotatable drum having peripheral openings is used to selectively connect vacuum and/or air sources and a vent to absorption chambers in a two-bed VPSA (vacuum presssure swing absorption) system to replace separate valves and produce low cost enriched oxygen, via reduced power, increased reliability, and reduced complexity and cost.
