The sorbing apparatus further comprises fluid control means for alternately directing fluid containing the substance through the bed of sorbent particles, whereby the bed of sorbent particles sorbs at least a portion of the substance from the fluid, and directing a purging fluid through the bed of sorbent particles, whereby the bed of sorbent particles is regenerated.
