    Abstract: The present invention provides a gas purification system with improved efficiency, simpler construction, cost reduction, form factor improvements, and increased durability. The present invention provides cost and form factor improvements through fewer components overall and through utilizing multiple integrated components. Prior art gas purification system are more bulky and complicated. The present invention achieves increased thermal efficiency through utilization of a regenerative heat exchanger to recapture a portion of the heat energy transferred to the gas during the purification process. Prior art purifiers lacked a regenerative heat exchanger. The present invention integrates the two components into one integrated heater and purification vessel assembly. The present invention integrates the two discrete components into one integrated hydrogen sorption and particle filter assembly. The integrated hydrogen sorption and particle filter assembly is also capable of operating at higher temperatures. This cases maintenance and manufacture. The resulting gas purification system is simpler through utilizing fewer components, smaller by utilizing fewer and integrated components, and reduced cost through fewer components, smaller components and through reduced manufacture labor requirements.

    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for removing impurities from a noble gas or nitrogen utilizing a single purifier vessel having three zones. In the first zone, the gas is preheated to a temperature greater than 200.degree. C.; in the second zone, the preheated gas is contacted with a getter material at greater than 335.degree. C. for removal of impurities such as methane and other hydrocarbons, water, carbon monoxide, nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide; in the third zone, the gas is contacted with a second getter material at a temperature greater than 150.degree. C. for removal of hydrogen. Hot gas exiting the purifier vessel is passed through a recuperative heat exchanger where the hot exiting gas preheats in-coming gas before it enters the first zone of the purifier vessel.

    Abstract: This invention is directed to a system and a process for protecting a gas purification system from damage comprising passing a stream of impure gas through a catalyst bed and measuring the temperature difference before and after the catalyzed bed reaction through a data analyzer to determine the impurity of the gas prior to controlling the feed of impure gas into or out of a reactor for producing a purified gas. In a preferred embodiment, the catalytic beds may be in parallel form, and the plurality of temperature measurements before and after the catalytic beds is considered by a data analyzer for controlling the impure gas for feeding into the purification reactor.

    Abstract: A two-stage process method for removal of impurities such carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxygen, water, hydrogen, and methane from inert gases at ambient temperature (0.degree.-60.degree. C.). In the first stage the inert gas is contacted with a nickel catalyst, and in the second stage the inert gas is passed over a getter alloy. Purified gas exiting the second stage of the purifier contains less than one part per billion (ppb) levels of the impurities. The nickel catalyst and getter alloy are initially activated at elevated temperature. The catalyst and getter may be reactivated by heating and purging, and hydrogen previously removed from impure gas can be used in the reactivation process.
