Systems and methods for regenerating adsorbents for indoor air scrubbing
First Claim
1. A system for scrubbing a mixture of gases and/or contaminants from an enclosed space to remove at least one gas and/or contaminant from the mixture of gases and/or contaminants, the system comprising:
- one or more adsorbent materials configured to be cycled between adsorption of at least one of gas and/or contaminant from the mixture of gases and/or contaminants, and regeneration thereof via a temperature swing adsorption cycle; and
a dedicated heat pump configured to remove heat from indoor air of the enclosed space and deliver the removed heat as regeneration heat to a purge gas and/or the one or more adsorbent materials, the dedicated heat pump separate from a heat pump system configured for providing conditioned air to the enclosed space.

Abstract
Some embodiments of the disclosure correspond to, for example, a system for scrubbing a mixture of gases and/or contaminants from indoor air from an enclosed space to remove at least one gas and/or contaminant from the mixture of gases and/or contaminants. The system may include one or more adsorbent materials configured to be cycled between adsorption and regeneration of at least one of gas and/or contaminant from the mixture of gases and/or contaminants via a temperature swing adsorption cycle (for example), regeneration means configured to regenerate one or more adsorbent materials. The regeneration means may be configured at a regeneration temperature to regenerate the one or more adsorbent materials.
