Desiccant is a dehumidification method that does
not use coolants. Thus, it helps protect our global
environment. Furthermore, its dehumidifying
capacity does not drop even the room temperature
is low ( see figure below), so it can still achieve
its dehumidifying capacity even on cold winter days.
Explanation
● Desiccant (a material with strong water absorption
ability) absorbs the moisture and then expels dried air.
That moisture is turned into drops of water in the heat
exchanger and is collected in the tank.
