Summary: | Rising problems of energy recovery and depletion are the possible danger most industries are facing now. The usage of effective equipment that does not only solve energy depletion but also environmental friendly has become a natural course for solving such bottlenecks for every industry. A heat driven technology, Adsorption Demixing Heat Transformer (ADHT) offers solutions by upgrading low temperature to high temperature by the use of waste heat or geothermal energy. To further investigate this technology, analysis of three working pairs of water-furfural, n-heptane – DMF and cyclohexane –DMSO were investigated as the driving force of ADHT. The efficiency of the three pairs of mixture on its operating parameters such as its internal temperature lift and thermal yield were demonstrated by the use of Hysys software. Projected results showed a temperature lift of 8.4, 5.7 and 36 K for water-furfural, n-heptane –DMF and cyclohexane-DMSO respectively. In conclusion, cyclohexane and DMSO pair has been found out as the best working pair with the highest temperature and thermal yield of 0.998 for better optimum results for an ADHT. |
