... directly from the air to be treated by direct contact with the absorbent. The absorbent is then regenerated, again in direct contact with an external air stream, at relatively low temperatures of the heat source. The paper describes a study of a liquid desiccant cooling system designed to air-condition...

...-Regenerator), uses ambient air in conjunction with an absorbent solution; the air is dehumidified and then employed to produce chilled water in an evaporative cooler. Alternatively, a portion of the dehumidified air may be used directly for air conditioning purposes. The system thus has the potential...
