Abstract

An adsorbing device comprising a main body having an intake port and an exhaust port and accommodating therein an adsorbing composition capable of adsorbing a gaseous specific substance; regenerating means attached to the main body for releasing the specific substance from the adsorbing composition; a sensor capable of detecting the specific substance arranged at least near the exhaust port of the main body; and a control unit for instructing the regenerating means to operate when the sensor detects the specific substance at a higher value than a predetermined value. The present invention intends to facilitate an operation to regenerate the adsorbing composition by heating and enable automation of the operation, thereby to prevent deterioration of the adsorbing composition.
