Investigation of solid adsorbents for humidity control in display cases.

Summary

Humidity is frequently difficult to control in museums because they are often housed in old buildings with high infiltration loads and outdated heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning systems. One alternative to achieve humidity control entirely through active space conditioning systems for the museum's macroenvironment is the use of solid adsorbent media positioned inside display cases or dioramas. In the paper, the authors explore the efficacy of using solid adsorbents for passive humidity control.
