Abstract

See full text

This invention relates to a VPSA method for the production of a product that is enriched with a more preferred gas from a mixture of the more preferred gas and a less preferred gas and, preferably to a VPSA method for the production of an oxygen-enriched product from air, using an oxygen-preferential adsorbent under equilibrium conditions. In a preferred embodiment the process uses a desorption purge at a nearly constant pressure that is selected to produce a steady stream of oxygen having a purity from 30% to 60% at a pressure in the range of 60 kPa to 20 kPa.
