“…As a result, the outlet air humidity ratio from the TE dehumidifier is decreased. This result agrees well with that presented by Al-Madhhachi and Min [15]. For dehumidification effectiveness, decreasing the heat sink temperature decreased both the equilibrium humidity ratio on the heat sink surface and that of the outlet air from the TE dehumidifier.…”

A thermoelectric (TE) air-cooling system for dehumidifying indoor air in a building was investigated. The system was composed of 4 TE modules. The cold sides of the TE modules were fixed to an aluminum heat sink to remove moisture in the air of a test chamber of 1 m3 volume, while a heat sink with circulating cooling water at the hot sides of the TE modules was used for heat release. The effects of input electric current to the TE modules and air flow rate through the heat sink were experimentally determined. The system’s performance was evaluated using dehumidification effectiveness and coefficient of performance (COP). A suitable condition occurred at 18.5 A of current flow and 240 W of power being supplied to the TE modules with a corresponding cooling capacity of 149.5 W, which gave a dehumidification effectiveness of 0.62. Therefore, it is anticipated the proposed TE dehumidifier concept will contribute to the air conditioning system’s reduction of room humidity.

“…Outdoor experiments show water productivity of 3.67 kg with salt rejection over 99.75% on a cloudy day. Hayder Al-Madhhachi et al [14] investigates the key factors that affect water production in a distillation system. Experiments were performed to find influence of evaporation temperature, vapor volume, Peltier current and input power.…”

the issue of the water crisis is rising day by day, due to global warming and other environmental effects. That is not only the issue for India, but it is also for the entire world. However, the solar-based water distillation plants are not much efficient but we can use this method for producing pure and drinkable water. In this paper, we proposed to design a solar water distillation plant using the single slop method. In addition to that for monitoring and measuring the performance of the distillation plant a data mining based prediction system is implemented. The experiments are performed on the real-world implemented single slop solar water distillation plant-based observations. The observations are collected using the IoT (Internet of things) device for each five-minute time difference for each sample collection. The data samples are collected between 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM for 7 days. Additionally by using the collected samples the data mining model is trained and tested on the prepared syntactic dataset. The experimental results demonstrate accurate predictions for the solar distillation water plant. After this implementation and system model, the future directions of the research are also provided.

“…In addition, several considerable approaches have been reported to reveal the relation between the water distillation system and TERC (Rahbar et al, 2016;Al-Madhhachi and Min, 2017;Al-Nimr and Al-Ammari, 2020;Javadi Yanbolagh et al, 2020;Parsa et al, 2020). Traditionally, TER has been deployed directly for cooling in the distillation field, and the COP mainly relies on water vapor temperature (Al-Madhhachi et al, 2018). Importantly, the combined membrane distillation with TER is an emerging strategy in the water distillation field.…”

Thermoelectric Refrigeration Membrane Distillation (TERMD) is an emerging membrane-based evaporation technology with excellent prospects for separation industries. However, the development of the TERMD system was further limited by excellent membrane component properties. In this paper, a cold chamber component of a TERMD is manufactured. Then, the cooling performance of the component is studied to examine the coupling between the Thermoelectric Refrigeration (TER) and the Membrane Distillation (MD) process. Moreover, the effects of the membrane components properties are studied by changing the water flow rate, and the input current of thermoelectric refrigeration. The results showed that when the TERMD cold room inlet current is maintained stable and the heat dissipation intensity increases, the cooling temperature gradually decreases. Also, the temperature on the cold side tends to stabilize while the flow rate exceeds 600 L/h. In addition, the input power decreases as the heat dissipation intensity increases in the cooling dissipation intensity of the Thermoelectric Refrigeration Component (TERC) cold chamber is kept stable. And, the input power will reach a critical value while the water volume flow rate is over 500 L/h. Furthermore, the cooling rate reaches the maximum of 1.59 at the water volume flow rate of 700 L/h while the operating current of the TERC is 12 A. It is concluded that the thermoelectric refrigeration component can supply great refrigeration power and a high Coefficient of Performance (COP) under small current conditions for the analysis of the thermoelectric performance of the TERC.
