“…A feasibility study was also undertaken and a commercialization strategy for the solar operated LDAC in Queensland was proposed. Alosaimy and Hamed [32] theoretically and experimentally investigated the performance of a solar water heater coupled with air dehumidifier for regeneration of the desiccant solution which was calcium chloride in this case. An evaporative cooler was also proposed to be coupled for air cooling in arid areas.…”

“…As a kind of renewable energy, solar energy can be utilized for regenerating liquid desiccant and solar desiccant regeneration system has attracted much attention [75,76]. At present, the solar desiccant regeneration system is mainly driven by solar thermal energy (TH regeneration) [77]. The solar collector/regenerator, which combines solar collector and regenerator of solar desiccant regeneration system, has been investigated by many researchers [78][79][80].…”

In the past decades, desiccant cooling systems have received much attention. These systems are considered as an alternative way to decrease energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission in humid and hot locations. To address the importance of desiccant air-conditioning systems, the present research aims to provide an overview of recent studies on the development of desiccant air conditioning system. Another objective is to consider the numerical and theoretical analysis of desiccant systems. Moreover, for the first time, a summary of recent researches regarding the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique for numerical modeling of desiccant cooling systems has been especially reviewed in detail. Finally, in the present review, the principle of regeneration of liquid desiccant using solar energy have also been considered briefly.

“…A large surface area of the material absorbs the light in the solar spectrum, with a high absorption rate and low radiation loss in the wavelength range of thermal radiation with low reflectivity. 90,91 Radiation energy is related to the types, properties, and surface state of the object, whereas the absorption rate is associated only with the properties and surface state of the object along with variation in the wavelength and intensity for the incident radiation energy.…”

The light trapping surface of micro-nanostructure can significantly improve the performance of optical transmission and can greatly reduce the broadband domain of material surface reflectivity, which means the material surface absorptivity on wide-spectrum signal is enhanced. Several commonly used methods for manufacturing micro-nano surface of light trapping structure with low reflectivity are introduced first, including chemical etching, mechanical grooving, reactive ion etching, common long-pulse laser grooving, and ultra-fast pulse laser processing. This is followed by a comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of these methods. Among these methods, ultra-fast pulse laser processing is an ideal manufacturing technology for fabrication of light trapping structures. The research status of the micro-nano manufacturing technology of structured surfaces for light trapping with low reflectivity is reviewed, and emphasis is given to their application prospects. The research directions and trends of the micro-nano manufacturing technology of structured surfaces for light trapping with low reflectivity are summarized, and broad application prospects and research value in many fields, such as solar cells, solar water heater, building wave-absorbing materials, information acquisition of mechanized equipments, high-radiation heat exchange equipment, solar heating equipment, and solar air conditioner, are pointed out.
