Summary:Separation unit (1) for separating at least one gaseous component from a gas mixture, or arrangement of such separation units, wherein it comprises at least one circumferential wall element(s) (5), said circumferential wall element(s) defining an upstream opening (31) and an opposed downstream opening (32) of at least one cavity (3) containing at least one gas adsorption structure (4) for adsorbing said gaseous component under ambient pressure and/or temperature conditions, or an array of at least two such cavities (3), wherein the separation unit (1) comprises a pair of opposing sliding doors (12) for sealing the openings of a cavity (3) and preferably allowing for evacuating a cavity (3), and wherein the pair of opposing sliding doors (12) can be shifted in a direction essentially parallel to the plane of the respective sliding door (12) and to allow for flow through of gas mixture through the gas adsorption structure (4).
