Abstract
Apparatus designed to effect the continuous processing of gas mixtures for the selective removal of certain elements and constituents from the gases. A method is also disclosed by which the continuous process is carried out. A drum-shaped rotor unit has adsorbent carrying containers mounted about an axis. These containers rotate through a first circumferential zone in which gas processing occurs and a second circumferential zone in which regeneration occurs. This allows gas to constantly flow into the rotor unit at the first circumferential zone to undergo an adsorption process while also continuously providing regenerated adsorbent to the first circumferential zone.
