Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011061056A1] The invention relates to a method for purifying a gas flow including at least a first compound selected from the compounds of a first group including water, ammonia, aromatics, alkane-, alkene-, or alkyne-type hydrocarbons containing at least 5 carbon atoms, aldehydes, ketones, halogen hydrocarbons, hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen chloride, and at least second and third compounds selected from the compounds of a second group including helium, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons lower than C5, wherein said method comprises a variable-pressure adsorption (PSA) implementing at least one main adsorber (17-2) comprising at least one contactor having parallel passages, characterized in that said first compound is at least partially stopped upstream (17-1) from said main adsorber.
