 Composites ‘salt inside porous matrix’ for adsorption heat transformation: a current state-of-the-art and new trendsL. G. Gordeeva and Yu. I. Aristov International Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies, 2012, vol. 7, issue 4, 288-302 Abstract: Adsorption heat transformation (AHT) is one of the challenging technical approaches for supporting the world community initiatives to alleviate or reverse the gravity of the problems arising from CO 2 emissions and global warming. The key tool for enhancement of the AHT efficiency and power is a harmonization of adsorbent properties with working conditions of the AHT cycles. It can be realized by means of target-oriented designing the adsorbent specified for a particular AHT cycle. Two-component composites ‘salt in porous matrix’ (CSPMs) offer new opportunities for nano-tailoring their sorption properties by varying the salt chemical nature and content, porous structure of the host matrix and synthesis conditions. CSPMs have been recognized as promising solid sorbents for various AHT cycles, namely adsorption chilling, desiccant cooling, heat storage and regeneration of heat and moisture in ventilation systems. In this review, we survey a current state-of-the-art and new trends in developing efficient CSPMs for various AHT cycles. Copyright , Oxford University Press.
