Abstract

An integrated system for removal of CO.sub.2 from and thermal conditioning of a gas mixture is disclosed. A pair of regenerating chemically impregnated molecular sieve absorption beds are used for removal of the CO.sub.2. A heat exchanger used in the thermal conditioning subsystem also heats the gas used to regenerate the beds and cools absorption gas. A recirculation fan moves the gas mixture throughout the entire thermal conditioning and gas purification system.
