About Gas-fired Desiccant Dehumidification Systems
Reducing moisture in the air makes spaces easier to cool. Desiccant dehumidification equipment can supplement conventional air conditioners by separating latent cooling load (moisture-related) from sensible cooling load (temperature-related). Conventional systems only control temperature. When air is cooled below the dew point, condensation occurs, resulting in higher cooling costs and a clammy environment.
Here’s how desiccant dehumidification equipment works: the system uses silica gel or titanium silicate to attract moisture from the air. As the air moves through the desiccant, the latent heat load is converted to warm, dry air. The air is then cooled to the desired temperature, and the absorbed moisture is released as a vapor into an exhaust flow.
Benefits:
- Reduces cost of cooling
- Improves product quality for companies with moisture sensitive products
- Improves occupant comfort
- Increases overall cooling capacity of existing cooling equipment
