Climate Control Using Desiccant Dehumidification

First Onsite shares how commercial and industrial facilities can control air quality and regulate temperature levels with efficient dehumidification equipment.


Desiccant dehumidifiers are one of the most effective ways of removing moisture from the air within industrial environments and commercial buildings. This climate control technology is implemented through a variety of applications in nearly two dozen major industries. The desiccant material or chemical used in these dehumidifiers easily attracts and contains water vapors. Desiccant dehumidification is well-known as being a proven alternative for achieving climate control at lower humidity levels and cooler temperatures.

How Desiccant Dehumidifiers Work

These dehumidifiers are powered by a patented wheel constructed of corrugated material and the desiccant. As air streams pass through the material, the moisture in water vapors is attracted to the desiccant, allowing only dry air to exit. A smaller exhaust airstream, or reactivation air, located below helps to dry off the desiccant wheel as it turns. The newly dried material then rotates back up to collect and absorb more moisture, restarting the cycle again.
