Design and Evaluation of an Innovative Thermoelectric-Based Dehumidifier for Greenhouses

Agronomy
Crops in greenhouses located in cold climates are frequently affected by high relative humidity (RH). This study presents the design, testing, and analysis of a dehumidifier based on thermoelectric cooling. Thermoelectric dehumidifiers (TEDs) are capable

Performance of a geared dehumidifier

International Journal of Energy Research, 1997
The performance of a laboratory scale dehumidifier has been measured under controlled laboratory conditions, yielding a maximum dehumidifier specific moisture extraction rate (SMER d ) of 7.94 kg kW -1 h -1 at 50°C and 85% relative humidity. Although we are not aware of any published data on dehumidifier systems having higher SMER d , there appears ...

Tailorable Curie Temperature in Zinc Ferrite Nanoparticles With Finely Tunable Induction Heating Profiles Between Room Temperature and 250°C

Small, Volume 22, Issue 21, 13 April 2026.
A spray‐drying‐based synthesis enables the formation of zinc ferrite nanoparticles with customizable induction heating from room temperature to 250°C by varying the zinc content and postsynthesis annealing temperatures. The aqueous dispersions are colloidally stable and heat up to biologically relevant thresholds. Hence, this approach offers a scalable

The Effect of Air Purification on the Indoor Air Quality in Habitable New Zealand Buildings

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
Particulate matter (PM) in indoor air, including fungal spores and bacteria, poses significant health risks, especially in poorly constructed and inadequately ventilated buildings that are prevalent in New Zealand. To maintain acceptable living conditions, there is a need to explore ways in which fungal and bacterial populations in habitable buildings ...
