Abstract

The present invention uses an inert gas medium to heat an adsorbent bed and effect desorption of one or more chemical moieties adsorbed thereon. In particular, the invention is useful for the desorption of COfrom adsorption beds utilized for direct air capture (DAC) of COas well as adsorption beds utilized for capture of COfrom flue gases. The inert gas medium is heated to the necessary sorbent desorption temperature and passed through a COadsorbent bed to bring it up to the proper desorption temperature and effect desorption. Once the bed is fully desorbed, the CO-enriched gas medium is passed through one or more condensers to separate the inert gas medium from the COproduct.
