Heat Flux and Effectiveness in Bubble Colum Dehumidifiers for HDH Desalination

Humidification-dehumidification is a promising technology for decentralized, small-scale desalination, but high energy consumption and large dehumidifier size are disadvantages. Direct-contact dehumidification in bubble columns has previously been shown to decrease dehumidifier volume by an order of...
