Patent ID: 11739506

Abstract:
A water recovery system including a first fluid stream inlet providing for the flow of a first fluid stream, such as a humidified inlet gas, into the system and a second fluid stream inlet providing for the flow of a second fluid stream, such as a gas having a temperature greater than the humidified inlet gas, into the system. At least one contactor is in fluid communication with the first fluid stream inlet and the second fluid stream inlet. The at least one contactor defining therein a first fluidically-isolated, sorbent-integrated, fluid domain for flow of the first fluid stream and water adsorption, a second fluidically-isolated fluid domain for flow of the second fluid stream wherein the second fluidically-isolated fluid domain is in thermal communication with the first fluidically-isolated, sorbent-integrated, fluid domain and a third fluidically-isolated fluid domain for capture of a condensate and recycling of latent heat of condensation back to the first fluidically-isolated, sorbent-integrated, fluid domain.
