  • Publication number: 20240295349
    Abstract: The invention relates to a renewable power and/or water generator with an absorption heat transformer (AHT) providing a heat pump, an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) for generating power, and a coupling between the AHT and the ORC to regenerate ORC rejection heat. The AHT consists of a low pressure evaporator and a vapour absorption binary (VAB) reactor that forms the coupling between the AHT and ORC. The VAB reactor includes an absorption section with an absorber heat exchanger and a distillation section provided by a rotating centrifugal unit that includes a flooded rotating packed bed.

  • Patent number: 12071748
    Abstract: The invention relates to an atmospheric water generator that includes an absorption heat transformer (AHT) designed as a heat pump that is able to extract heat even from waste heat sources at or below ambient temperatures, with an evaporator working at a favourable design temperature (preferably between 2° C. and 15° C.) for chilled water supply to a cold coil that extracts atmospheric water from ambient air. The AHT employs a pseudo-isobaric temperature glide bubble reactor that contains a suitable binary liquid-vapour mixture in a density separation distillation environment, powered by a vapour absorption process.
