1. A method of purification or separation of a gaseous mixture containing at least two constituents, with a TSA system, wherein said TSA system comprises n radial adsorbers, with n≧4, wherein each adsorber operating in a pressure cycle of duration T, said pressure cycle comprising a production period and a regeneration period, wherein the pressure cycles of all the adsorbers are phase shifted from one another by a phase shift of duration x·Δφ, where 1≦x≦(n−1) and Δ≦=T/n, wherein a regeneration heater is used continuously, during the regeneration period of an adsorber. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein at each moment in the pressure cycle, at least two adsorbers are in the adsorption phase. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein periodically, at least three adsorbers are in the adsorption phase. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the purification method uses n radial adsorbers with n=4 on a cycle involving n/2 production phases and n/2 regeneration phases. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the purification method uses n radial adsorbers with n=6 on a cycle involving n/2 production phases and n/2 regeneration phases. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the purification method uses five adsorbers on a cycle involving three production phases and two regeneration phases or two production phases and three regeneration phases. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the duration of the heating phase to regenerate an adsorber is approximately equal to the phase time Δφ. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein use is made, during the heating step of the regeneration period, of a heating gas flow rate that differs from the flow rate of cooling gas used at the end of the regeneration period. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the flow rates of heating and/or cooling gas passing through a given adsorber are modified during the course of the cycle. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the phase time is between about 15 and about 90 minutes. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the hourly volumetric flow rate of gas to be treated in the adsorption unit is in excess of 100 000 m3/h. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the pressure of the gas to be treated is between about 2 and about 35 bar, absolute. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the pressure of the gas to be treated is between about 3 and about 8 bar, absolute. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the duration of a cycle is between about 90 and about 600 minutes. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein the gaseous mixture is air and in that the carbon dioxide and the water contained in the air are eliminated in the production period. 16. The method of claim 1, wherein the gaseous mixture contains predominantly CO2 and at least one impurity. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the impurity comprises water and/or oxides of nitrogen and/or sulphur-containing products. 18. The method of claim 1, wherein each adsorber contains activated alumina and/or zeolite and/or silica gel and/or activated carbon by way of adsorbent. 19. The method of claim 1, wherein the gas from the production phase undergoes cryogenic distillation.
