Abstract: In a dry moving bed type adsorption tower using a granular adsorbent, for example, for removing SO.sub.x and NO.sub.x from waste gases, the granular adsorbent entering the adsorption tower is previously rinsed with a gas in a feed pipe for the adsorbent, thereby avoiding the need to install a dust collector at the outlet of the adsorption tower.
Abstract: A reactor of the moving bed type wherein a granular material is packed and held by a louver structure and moved downward and brought into contact with a gas passing through the louver, is improved so as to avoid both accumulation of dust on the louver part at the gas inlet side and excessive rising of the pressure loss.
