Abstract:
A coaxial waveguide applicator for an electromagnetic wave-activated sorption system comprising:at least one sorber having a metallic tubular housing defining an outer conductor and first and second ends which are sealed to define an enclosure within the outer conductor;a sorbate/sorbent compound located within the enclosure;the sorber including a port through which a sorbate may be communicated into and out of the enclosure;a metallic inner conductor extending into the outer conductor;an electromagnetic wave generator coupled to the inner and outer conductors;wherein electromagnetic waves transmitted by the electromagnetic wave generator are propagated through the enclosure by the inner and outer conductors to desorb the sorbate from the sorbate/sorbent compound.
