Abstract: A membrane separation apparatus includes: a shell, wherein an inner surface of the shell is an arc surface, and at least one medium inlet and at least one medium outlet used for discharging a medium that is separated are arranged on the shell; a rotor arranged inside the shell, wherein at least two contact ends that are always in slidably contact with the inner surface of the shell are arranged on an outer surface of the rotor, the outer surface of the rotor and the inner surface of the shell form sealed separate cavities between the adjacent contact ends, and an empty part inside the rotor is used as a medium storage chamber; and separation chambers arranged inside the rotor.

Abstract: A pressure swing adsorption apparatus having: a housing with an arc-shaped inner surface, the housing being arranged with at least one gas inlet, at least one exhaust port and at least one gas outlet for discharging the separated gas; a rotor arranged in the housing, at least two contact ends being arranged on the rotor for maintaining a non-stop sliding contact with the inner surface of the housing, individual cavities, i.e., air cavities between the adjacent contact ends and formed between the external surface of the rotor and the inner surface of the housing, and each air cavity being separated by the contact ends; adsorption chambers set inside the rotor as parts of the rotor and rotated along with the rotor, molecular sieves being loaded in the interior of the adsorption chambers, and the adsorption chambers being provided with screen openings for connection with the air cavities.
