Abstract

A rotary gas recovery system includes a fixed adsorption tower (12) divided into a plurality of sections (12') arranged in the circumferential direction around a central axis and filled with adsorbent (11), a first manifold (14) on one side of the tower having opening (14a, 14b) for supplying and discharging gases to and from the fixed adsorption tower, a second manifold (15) having openings (15a-15d) for supplying and discharging gases through the first manifold, and a movable valve plate (16) slidably interposed between the first manifold (14) and second manifold (15) and having openings (16a, 16b) for sequentially connecting the openings in the first manifold with the openings in the second manifold by a continuous motion.
