Sorption air conditioning.

[In German. / En allemand.]

Author(s) : KRONAUER D.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The author tells how different waste-heat sources can be put to use in supplying energy for sorption air conditioning. He describes a newly developed sorption technique based on a new material, similar to silica gel, which has 600 to 700 m2 of inner surface area per gram, and an average pore diameter of 3.7 nanometers. Energy savings amounted to 230 kilowatthour per tonne of this material. Other advantages of the material: desorption can be done with lower temperatures (60-250 deg C) ; water absorption capacity of 39 % of overall volume is possible ; and it is environmentally sound. The system's operation and configuration are described. M.C.
