Abstract
An apparatus for the adsorptive cleaning of gases comprises a rigid hermetically sealed housing provided internally with an inner vessel connected with the outer housing by a fluid carrying duct which is yieldable along the axis of the inner housing. The inner housing rests upon a grate and can be surrounded by a layer of thermal insulation. A filling of the adsorbent is provided in the inner vessel which is free from the usual bottoms carrying beds of adsorbent.
Claims4
An adsorber for cleaning of gases comprising:
- a pressure retentive thick-wall outer vessel provided with a duct at a bottom portion of said outer vessel;
- a rigid grate spanning the interior of said outer vessel and rigidly secured thereto;
- a loose gas-permeable body of an adsorbent resting on said grate;
- a closed-top downwardly open inner vessel of lesser wall thickness than said outer vessel and disposed in said outer vessel and having a unitary therewith a lower edge resting freely upon said grate without attachment thereto, said inner vessel being bottomless and fully open downwardly at said edge while confining said gas-permeable body of said adsorbent resting on said grate, a free space completely surrounding said inner vessel within said outer vessel to permit lateral movement of said inner vessel relative to said grate and said outer vessel;
- and
- yieldable means including a further duct connecting said upper portion of said inner vessel to an upper portion of said outer vessel for permitting gas flow out of and into said inner vessel.
