Abstract

A N2-CO2 mixture is separated in a rapid pressure swing adsorption apparatus, which consists of single or double adsorbent beds filled with silica gel and operates in the sequence of adsorption, backflow and desorption. Nitrogen-rich gas is produced at the top of the bed, and carbon dioxide-rich gas at the bottom. Carbon dioxide purity of 89.5% and recovery of 70% were obtained in the single-bed apparatus, while purity of 93.5% and recovery of 72.3% were obtained in the double-bed apparatus. The feed in both cases consisted of 81% N2 and 19% CO2.
