Abstract
An environmental control system is provided. The system includes a sorbent regeneration device. The sorbent regeneration device includes at least one regenerative sorbent material operative to remove gas substances from air. The at least one regenerative sorbent material is operatively coupled to a source of hot air. The sorbent regeneration device further includes at least two bypass valves that are operative to selectively direct some or all of the hot air into the at least one regenerative sorbent material. The environmental control system further includes one or more air quality sensors and a controller operatively connected to the at least two bypass valves and the one or more air quality sensors. The controller is operative to control one or more of the at least two bypass valves in response to air quality determined from the air quality sensors.
