    摘要: A process for the enhanced separation of gases comprising:

    (a) contacting a feed gas stream (1) at an elevated pressure with a permeable membrane (4) capable of selectively permeating a first component thereof, thereby obtaining a first component enriched, second component depleted permeate portion (6) of said feed stream (1) at a reduced pressure, and a second component enriched, first component depleted non-permeate portion (5) of said feed stream (1) substantially at said elevated pressure;
    (b) withdrawing said non-permeate gas (5) from the permeable membrane (4);
    (c) passing said permeate gas (6) to the feed end of an adsorbent bed in a pressure swing adsorption system (9) capable of selectively adsorbing additional amounts of said second component therefrom at an upper adsorption pressure, with unadsorbed, purified first component gas being withdrawn as a high purity gas (10) from the product end of the bed;
    (d) countercurrently depressurizing the bed to a lower desorption pressure and/or purging said bed (9) to desorb and release a first and second component-­containing regeneration stream (11) from the feed end of the bed (9); and
    (e) recycling said at least a portion of regeneration stream for combination with additional quantities of the feed gas stream, whereby the separation of the first component is achieved at a high purity and desirable recovery levels, with said second component being available at a desirably high pressure level.
