Abstract

[0002] Due to its advantages such as simple process, low energy consumption and low cost, adsorption has become one of the most mature and widely used technologies in the field of gas separation and recovery. In addition to the manufacturing process and operating conditions, the efficiency and economy of the adsorption process usually depend on the characteristics of the adsorbent. At the same time, since the adsorption material is usually a porous medium, the gas passes through in the form of seepage, and it is usually necessary to increase the seepage driving force by means of pressurization, suction, etc.
[0003] However, as the adsorption process proceeds, the adsorbent at the inlet end gradually becomes saturated, and its pore structure and surface properties undergo significant changes, resulting in increased resistance between the gas and solid phases, smaller pore sizes, and other conditions that are not conducive to gas seepage. Therefore, it is necessary to reveal the mechanism of change in the seepage resistance of the adsorption material, improve the process and equipment, and propose methods for seepage enhancement and driving force compensation.
