Summary

A total heat energy exchanger in its early stage of development was made of an asbestos paper honeycomb rotor impregnated with lithium chloride as a latent heat exchanging agent. But the system had problems: risk of cancer related to asbestos, efficiency decrease, corrosion of devices caused by salt due to the outflow of lithium chloride in high humidity conditions. In order to solve health problems related to the use of asbestos, a method to give a latent heat exchanging function to an aluminium sheet having only a sensitive heat exchanging function was developed by carrying solid adsorbent on the sheet. An aluminium total heat energy exchanger with excellent efficiency was successfully put into practice.
