Description
Summary:The increase in energy efficiency, reducing energy demand, greenhouse gas emissions and the use of waste, renewable and recycled heat from low-temperature sources are significant challenges today and are key parts of the idea of the 4th Generation District Heating (4GDH). On the other hand, currently about one billion people around the world are suffering from water scarcity, and another three billion are approaching this situation. Only 2.5% of the total water globally is freshwater, of which around 70% is not available, and only 0.4% constitutes the most valuable part of freshwater. Adsorption cooling technology is one of the most effective ways of cooling and producing potable water from renewable and waste heat of the near ambient temperature, including sewage water, solar heat and underground resources. The brief summary of the contributions accepted for the Special Issue of Energies, “Adsorption Desalination and Cooling Systems: Advances in Design, Modeling and Performance”, is presented in this paper in order of the publication date.
