Abstract

In a PSA separation method, a specific gas component is selectively adsorbed from mixture gas. After flushing with gas, the gas component is recovered by desorption. This desorption is divided into initial, middle and final stages. The gas component separated at the middle stage is recovered as product gas, while the gas recovered at the initial and final stages is used as the flushing gas.
