[0002] In the existing technology, when the adsorption tower in the dryer needs to be regenerated and desorbed, it is either externally connected with a gas for regenerating and desorbing the adsorbent in the adsorption tower or the dried product gas from another adsorption tower enters the heater after being decompressed by a regulating valve and is heated. This part of the product gas enters the adsorption tower that needs to be regenerated and analyzed to desorb and regenerate the adsorbent in the adsorption tower, restoring the drying capacity of the adsorbent. The regeneration gas is discharged into the atmosphere through the exhaust pipe; these two methods either require external gas or require introducing the dried product gas from one adsorption tower into the adsorption tower to desorb and regenerate the adsorbent in the adsorption tower, resulting in problems of large gas consumption and high cost.
