Membrane Chiller
A chemical-free, thermally activated air-conditioning system.
Technology Overview:
This refrigerant-free air conditioning system uses specialized water permeable membranes and system architecture instead of a heating coil to cool and dehumidify air. The membrane chiller is driven by low temperature heat, including available low-temperature waste...
