During analysis, the pressure of the activated carbon layer is reduced to separate the organic matter in the activated carbon.

[0025] In order to perform fire-retardant pretreatment, a flame arrester 2 and an exhaust fan 3 are also provided on the connecting pipe between the DMC exhaust gas and the first adsorption tank 4.
