Abstract: In an inside air control system, a first pump supplies treatment target air to an adsorption vessel, and a second pump sucks gas from the adsorption vessel. In an adjustment operation of adjusting the composition of air in a storage, the inside air control system alternately performs a first action and a second action. When a stop condition for stopping the adjustment operation is satisfied, a controller performs stop control. In the stop control, the controller controls the second pump to suck the gas from the adsorption vessel to which the first pump supplies the treatment target air when the stop condition is satisfied, and controls the second pump to stop after the second pump has operated for a first time T1.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for performing CO2 sorption and desorption using a sorbent structure with an integrated heat pump. The integrated heat pump can allow at least a portion of the heat generated during sorption to be recovered by forming steam from water.

The compressed and optionally heated steam can then be used as at least a portion of the steam for desorption of CO2 in the same sorbent bed or a different sorbent bed. By recovering the heat of sorption to raise steam, substantial energy savings can be achieved relative to a conventional process.
