Abstract: A circular rotating body having a plurality of fan-shaped blocks is disposed inside a casing and driven to rotate. A gas absorption/releasing material in the blocks absorbs/releases a specific gas component from a gas mixture depending on temperature. The rotating body has a hollow static central portion which is divided to form two temperature adjusting fluid paths through which temperature adjusting fluids having different temperatures pass. First and second independent gas flow paths are defined by the casing. A gas mixture containing the gaseous component flows along the first gas flow path through blocks which are heated to a first temperature at which absorption takes place. The blocks are then rotated to a position wherein they are heated to a higher second temperature and release the gaseous component which is exhausted via the second gas flow path. Blocks sequentially enter positions which separate the two different zones.

Abstract: A thermal power plant comprises: an air compressor which compresses a sucked air to generate a high pressure air; a gas turbine combustor adapted to supply a fuel to the high pressure air from the air compressor to generate a combustion gas; a high pressure gas turbine adapted to perform an expansion working of the combustion gas from the gas turbine combustor and generate an exhaust gas; a low pressure gas turbine and adapted to perform an expansion working of the exhaust gas from the high pressure gas turbine and generate an exhaust gas containing carbon dioxide; and a carbon dioxide absorbing and discharging equipment located on an outlet side of the low pressure gas turbine, the carbon dioxide absorbing and discharging equipment being provided with a carbon dioxide absorbing and discharging agent having a property of absorbing the carbon dioxide contained in the exhaust gas supplied from the low pressure gas turbine and decomposing the absorbed carbonate by the exhaust gas supplied from the high pressure
