Abstract
An active silica gel honeycomb adsorbing body capable of adsorbing humidity and odorous components in a process air having 100% relative humidity. A single-faced corrugated sheet having a wave length of approximately 2.5-6.5 mm and a wave height of approximately 1.3-4.0 mm, a quantity of active silica gel approximately 0.5-3.0 times the weight of inorganic fiber papers and a thickness of approximately 0.1-0.3 mm is laminated to form a honeycomb structure laminated body. The honeycomb structure laminated body is impregnated with an aqueous water glass solution, and is then impregnated with acid and dried to form active silica gel having micropores and mesopores. The micropores and the mesopores have a diameter distributed in the range of not more than 200 .ANG. and a surface area of approximately 300-600 m.sup.2 /g. The active silica gel is adhered in fiber gaps and on the surface of the inorganic fiber paper.
