A two-stage complete recycle pressure-swing adsorption process for gas separation features that separating more adsorptable component and less adsorptable component from gas mixture, and the product is more adsorptable component or less adsorptable component or both of them. Serially-connected operation of two-stage pressure-swing adsorber is employed. The gas mixture is fed into the first stage pressure-swing adsorption gas separation system, and the more adsorptable component of the gas mixture is absorbed, then is abstracted into product. The semifinished gas mixture from the outlet of the first stage pressure-swing adsorption tower is fed into the second stage pressure-swing adsorption gas separation system. The more adsorptable component of the semifinished gas mixture is absorbed further, and the less adsorptable component is fed into next stage. The gas in the second stage pressure-swing adsorption gas separation system except for the less adsorptable component fed into next stage is reintroduced into the first stage pressure-swing adsorption gas separation system to increase pressure. The first stage pressure-swing adsorption tower in one cyclic period comprises the steps in turn: the adsorption step A, tow-end pressure-equalizing and reduction 2ED′, converse pressure-reduction BD, two-stage gas pressure-boosting 2ER, two-end pressure-equalizing and boosting 2ER′ and final boosting FR. The second stage pressure-swing adsorption tower in one cyclic period comprises the steps in turn: the adsorption step A, sequence pressure-equalizing and reduction ED, converse pressure-reduction BD, converse pressure-equalizing and boosting ER and final boosting FR.
