Abstract

A system and method for the efficient collection of COis disclosed. The system includes a subsystem having a condenser and a vaporizer, and a plurality of vessels each having a sorbent and configured to transition between gas collection, gas recovery, and heat recovery phases. The gas collection phase includes the sorbent absorbing CO. The gas recovery phase has N stages, the vessels releasing a product gas and receiving vapor causing captured COto desorb. The first (N−1) gas recovery stages include the vessel coupled to the subsystem at a downstream pressure and a vessel in the heat recovery phase at an upstream pressure. The Nth gas recovery stage includes the vessel coupled to the condenser at the downstream pressure and the vaporizer at the upstream pressure. The heat recovery phase has (N−1) stages, each including the vessel being coupled to a vessel in the gas recovery phase.
