A process for separating a fluid component from a fluid mixture comprising the fluid component, the process comprising: (A) flowing the fluid mixture into a microchannel separator; the microchannel separator comprising a plurality of process microchannels containing a sorption medium, a header providing a flow passageway for fluid to enter the process microchannels and a footer providing a flow passageway for fluid to leave the process microchannels, the combined internal volume of the header and the footer being up to about 40% of the internal volume of the process microchannels; the fluid mixture being maintained in the microchannel separator until at least part of the fluid component is sorbed by the sorption medium; purging the microchannel separator to displace non-sorbed parts of the fluid mixture from the microchannel separator; and (B) desorbing the fluid component from the sorption medium and flowing a flush fluid through the microchannel separator to displace the desorbed fluid component from the microchannel spearator.

La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de séparer un composant fluide d'un mélange fluide comprenant le composant fluide. A cet effet, (A) on fait couler le mélange fluide dans un séparateur à microcanaux (100) comprenant une pluralité de microcanaux de traitement (104) contenant un milieu de sorption (106), un caisson de distribution (102) constituant un passage d'écoulement permettant au fluide de pénétrer dans les microcanaux de traitement (104) et un caisson collecteur (108) constituant un passage d'écoulement permettant au fluide de sortie des microcanaux de traitement (104). Le volume interne combiné des deux caissons (102, 108) représentant au maximum environ 40% du volume interne des microcanaux de traitement (104). Le mélange de fluides est maintenu dans le séparateur à microcanaux (100) jusqu'à ce qu'une partie du composant fluide soit sorbée par le milieu de sorption (106). On purge le séparateur à microcanaux (100) de façon à déplacer du séparateur à microcanaux (100) les parties non sorbées du mélange de fluide. Enfin, (B) on désorbe du milieu de sorption (106) le composant fluide, et on fait passer un fluide de rinçage par le séparateur à microcanaux (100) pour déplacer du séparateur à microcanaux (100) le composant fluide désorbé.
