A method for processing an organic solvent-containing air is disclosed.
The method can be operated in spite of a rapid fluctuation of the
concentration of the organic solvents in the air to be processed,
specifically, the method does not increase the organic solvent content in
the air to be emitted into the atmosphere after processing, even if the
concentration of the organic solvents rapidly changes. The method
comprises carrying out simultaneously and continuously an
adsorbing-removing step, a regenerating step, and a combustion step,
while mixing a purified air produced in the adsorbing-removing step with
an exhaust gas from a combustion furnace produced in the combustion step,
and decomposing the organic solvents in the mixture by oxidation.
