Solar Refrigerator With Efficient Adsorbent

The design a solar-sorption refrigerator to be used in the warm and humid climate of Mexico, the most critical environmental conditions and most demanding climatic zone for cooling technology, requires that the adsorption capacity of the composite sorbent to be characterize. It must be verified that the composite sorbent such as silica gel, calcium chloride and various natural zeolites, with different substances in a gaseous state as sorbate, (water, methanol and ethanol), has hydrogen bonds that can be united and broken easily, measuring the amount of energy required by the sorption-desorption mechanism.
