Disclosed is a method for producing a granular adsorbent for carbon monoxide or carbon disulfide separation. According to the method, incipient wet impregnation and sonication are performed simultaneously and the amount of an impregnation solution and the average particle diameter of a particulate adsorbent are adjusted to optimal ranges to produce a granular adsorbent that is evenly and uniformly impregnated with metal ions, achieving significantly improved carbon monoxide and carbon disulfide adsorption capacities. Also disclosed is a granular adsorbent for carbon monoxide or carbon disulfide separation produced by the method. The granular adsorbent has highly stable physical properties, does not cause problems such as pressure drop or line contamination during use, and is simple to produce because the use of a solvent such as a strong acid or base is not required during production. Also disclosed is a separator including the granular adsorbent.

Method for manufacturing a granular adsorbent for separating carbon monoxide or carbon disulfide

The present invention concerns the apparatus for producing oxygen, comprising: a first zeolite bed connected to an external air pressurizing device and a depressurizing device for increasing or decreasing an internal pressure thereof; a second zeolite bed connected to the first zeolite bed in parallel and connected to the external air pressurizing device and the depressurizing device for decreasing or increasing an internal pressure thereof, the first and second zeolite beds being arranged such that the internal pressure of the second zeolite bed is decreased when the internal pressure of the first zeolite bed is increased, and the internal pressure of the second zeolite bed is increased when the internal pressure of the first zeolite bed is decreased; and a carbon molecular sieve bed communicated in fluid with the first and second zeolite beds for receiving and adsorbing oxygen produced in the first and second zeolite beds and discharging the produced oxygen to the outside and discharging selectively some of the produced oxygen to the first zeolite bed or the second zeolite bed.
