A gas purification processing apparatus is described. The gas purification processing apparatus can control the generation of adsorption heat by an adsorbate substance in purification processing and thereby prevent desorption or ignition or the like of the adsorbate component by performing cooling processing on an adsorbent itself when needed. This advantageously ensures high adsorption efficiency with a simple and convenient configuration. During operation of the apparatus, gas is supplied from the source and purified by a purification part and then discharged as a purified gas. When the temperature of the purification part exceeds a predetermined temperature, a cooling medium is supplied from the cooling processing part to cool the purification part.

The method serves for producing a horizontal through flow adsorber with two adsorbents which contains two immediately adjacent packings in a horizontal or vertical container. Between the two packings there is a vertical interface. In a step (a) a vertical dividing wall is positioned on the bottom of the adsorption bed and then on each side of the dividing wall one of the two adsorbents is charged up to a first height that does not exceed the upper edge of the separating ring. In the following step (b) the vertical dividing wall is displaced upwardly until the lower edge thereof is still placed in the existing packing. Then, on each side of the dividing wall one of the two adsorbents is charged up to a second height that does not exceed the upper edge of the displaced dividing wall. Finally, step (b) is repeated until a predetermined filling height is achieved. According to the invention, the vertical dividing wall is composed of at least three dividing wall modules (6.01) that extend only over a part of the length or of the periphery of the vertical dividing wall and are movable in a vertical direction independently of one another.

A process for producing an adsorption unit is disclosed, wherein an adsorber bed of the adsorption unit is filled with a bed of an adsorbent which is selected from a multitude of adsorbents by a test method, wherein, in the test method, a particle of each adsorbent is repeatedly laden with a sorbate and regenerated again, which converts the particle to an aged particle, and a fracture property B of the aged particle of each adsorbent is determined, wherein the adsorbent for the bed is selected depending on the fracture property B determined from the multitude of adsorbents.

A radial air purification system, a method of forming the purification system, and methods of removing at least one contaminant from a gas using the purification system are provided. The radial air purification system includes adsorbent media tubular supports that are fabricated using a fiberglass grating structure to provide increased strength, corrosion resistance, reduction in weight, and lower fabrication costs.

A gas dryer of the invention, being a heaterless type of gas dryer that carries out dehumidifying of hydrogen gas circulating in an interior of a rotating electrical machine, includes a drying tower that causes moisture in the hydrogen gas to adsorb to a desiccant, and a funnel-form desiccant holding portion disposed in an interior of the drying tower and holding the desiccant, wherein the desiccant is introduced into the desiccant holding portion from an input valve of an upper portion of the drying tower, and moist desiccant is discharged from a discharge valve of a lower portion of the drying tower. The desiccant holding portion is configured of perforated metal, or the like, having ventilation, and is used as a partitioning plate that partitions the interior of the drying tower.

A dehumidifier includes a first air distribution assembly connected to a process air inlet for receiving process air, and to a regeneration air outlet for exhausting regeneration air; and a second air distribution assembly connected to a process air outlet for delivering process air, and to a regeneration air inlet for receiving regeneration air. The dehumidifier includes multiple stationary modules connected in parallel between the air distribution assemblies. Each module contains desiccant and has opposing apertures for connecting to the air distribution assemblies. The air distribution assemblies are configured to cycle between a number of positions equal to the number of modules. In each position, the air distribution assemblies establish a regeneration air flow from the regeneration air inlet to the regeneration air outlet via one module, and a plurality of process air flows from the process air inlet to the process air outlet via each remaining module.

Fuel tank inerting prefilter assemblies, fuel tank inerting prefilter devices, and methods for treating fluids, particularly process fluids used in fuel inerting tank systems, are disclosed.
