A process for regenerating an adsorber which adsorbs organic substances from the air in which the adsorber is heated by microwave energy to evaporate adsorbed organic substances on the adsorber. The adsorber is provided with enhanced microwave absorption capacity to enable the adsorber to evaporate the adsorbed organic substances. The adsorber can be produced to have itself high microwave energy absorbing capacity or a solid material can be combined with the adsorber to provide the high microwave absorbing capacity. The solid material can be combined with an adsorbing enhancing substance and can be a carrier therefor. In a particular embodiment, the adsorber can be a hydrophobic zeolite and the microwave absorbing material can be a hydrophilic zeolite.
