A process for gas purification or separation intended to produce a gas mixture containing mainly hydrogen and, to a minor extent CO, it being imperative for the CO content to remain below a set value is presented. This invention particularly relates to adsorption processes and even more particularly to processes of the PSA (“Pressure Swing Adsorption”) type.

1. a process for purifying or separating a feed gas stream containing hydrogen H.sub.2 and a molar carbon monoxide (CO) content greater than or equal to 1000 ppm, comprising: a) introducing the feed gas stream continuously into a first purification unit of the PSA type containing a first adsorbent o
1. a process for purifying or separating a feed gas stream containing hydrogen H.sub.2 and a molar carbon monoxide (CO) content greater than or equal to 1000 ppm, comprising: a) introducing the feed gas stream continuously into a first purification unit of the PSA type containing a first adsorbent on which CO is preferentially adsorbed, thereby producing an at least partially purified gas stream having an average molar CO content T less than or equal to Tacc, said at least partially purified gas stream having a CO content of less than or equal to 100 ppm, and periodically having a first maximum CO content TM.sub.0 greater than Tacc; b) recovering said at least partially purified gas; c) introducing said recovered at least partially purified gas continuously into a downstream adsorber containing at least one second adsorbent on which CO is preferentially adsorbed, thereby producing a gas enriched in H.sub.2 having an average CO content T and a maximum CO content TM.sub.1, both being less than or equal to Tacc; d) recovering said gas enriched in H.sub.2. 2. The process of claim 1, wherein in step c) the maximum CO content TM1 is such that (TM1−T)<½(TM0−T). 3. The process of claim 2, wherein the maximum CO content TM1 is such that (TM1−T)<⅕(TM0−T). 4. The process of claim 2, wherein the maximum CO content TM1 is such that (TM1−T)< 1/10(TM0−T). 5. The process of claim 1, wherein in step a) the maximum CO content TM0 is such that TM0≧1.1×T. 6. The process of claim 5, wherein in step a) the maximum CO content TM0 is such that TM0≧2×T. 7. The process of claim 1, wherein in step c) the second adsorbent has, at 20° C., a Henry constant for CO greater than or equal to 2.5 (mmol/g)/bar. 8. The process of claim 7, wherein in step c) the second adsorbent has, at 20° C., a Henry constant for CO greater than or equal to 5 (mmol/g)/bar. 9. The process of claim 1, wherein the first and second adsorbents are identical. 10. The process of claim 1, wherein the second adsorbent is of the granular type, and the first adsorbent is of the monolithic type. 11. The process of claim 10, wherein the second adsorbent is in the form of beads or rods. 12. The process of claim 10, wherein the first adsorbent is in the form of sheets. 13. The process of claim 1, wherein the second adsorbent is chosen from an X zeolite. 14. The process of claim 13, wherein the second adsorbent is selected from the group consisting of an LSX zeolite, a 5A zeolite and an exchanged zeolite. 15. The process of claim 13, wherein the second adsorbent is a zeolite exchanged to the extent of more than 50%. 16. The process of claim 1, wherein the downstream adsorber contains at least two different adsorbent materials. 17. The process of claim 1, wherein the feed gas stream is obtained by a process selected from the group consisting of steam reforming, partial oxidation of hydrocarbons, partial oxidation of alcohols, gasification of coal, gasification of residues, and mixed processes. 18. The process of claim 1, wherein gas coming from step d) is intended for a network of the pipeline type, a chemical unit, a petrochemical unit, a unit forming part of a refinery or for feeding a fuel cell.
