The present invention generally relates to vacuum pressure swing adsorption processes and apparatus to recover carbon dioxide having a purity of approximately \u226790 mole % from streams containing at least carbon dioxide and hydrogen. The device comprises an upper plate having first and second halves, each half independently movable between an upper and a lower position, and a lower plate having tip connectors for the attachment of collecting tips. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery has a good cyclic characteristic under any environment of low temperature, ambient temperature and high temperature.
