The cyclic operation of a thermal swing adsorption system is being              investigated with the goal of minimizing energy costs.  The adsorption          equilibrium for a model system of n-hexane and normal octane is                 measured, and process data on a computer-controlled laboratory scale            cyclic adsorption apparatus are obtained.  Optimal regeneration                 conditions are determined for variations of flow directions, flow               rates, gas composites, initial loading of the adsorbates, column                pressures, and feed temperatures.  The adsorption equilibrium data are          correlated and used to predict the results for cyclic adsorption                experiments.  The mathematical model used for the prediction accounts           for heat and mass transfer resistances and heat losses from the bed.
