Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) processes are widely applied industrially for gas separations. Applications are numerous and include hydrogen and helium recovery and purification, air drying, the production of oxygen from air, and the separation of normal paraffins from isoparaffins. [Pg.198]

Early work of Barrer (3), McKee (4) and Domine and Hay (5) showed that calcium A, calcium X, mordenite and several types of natural zeolites could be used to enrich air by a selective adsorption of nitrogen. Several pressure-swing-adsorption processes utilizing zeolite adsorbents have been developed which yield a product containing up to 95% oxygen at rates of 20 tons per day (6,7). [Pg.333]

Milton and Breck discovered that these engineered materials could be produced with pore structures capable of selectively adsorbing nitrogen from air. Exploitation of this phenomenon soon led to pressure swing adsorption (PSA) air separation plants for the production of oxygen at purities between 90 and 94 percent. [Pg.62]
