Explain how a desiccant wheel dehumidifier works

What will be an ideal response?


Desiccant wheel dehumidifiers use desiccants imbedded in a rotating wheel made out of a corrugated plastic material. As the wheel turns, the desiccant passes first through the incoming air where the desiccant adsorbs moisture from the air. Next, the desiccant passes through a regenerating zone where the desiccant is dried by the hot regenerating air.
