Glycol based dehumidifier system

Abstract

A glycol based dehumidifier system allows for the removal of water vapor from air in an air conditioner. A glycol solution is chilled and passed though the flow of air to remove the water vapor allowing it be further cooled an for the air to absorb moisture from the closed space being controlled by the air conditioner.

What is claimed: 
     
         1 . A glycol based dehumidifier system comprising:
 at least one reservoir and coils that are filled with a glycol solution;
 were the coils are in fluid communication with the glycol solution of the reservoir; and 
   at least one pump configured to move the glycol solution from the reservoir to the path of air in an air conditioner;   wherein the glycol solution in the coils chills the glycol solution in the reservoir; and   wherein the glycol solution passing through the air from the air conditioner removes water vapor therefrom.   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1  wherein the glycol solution is 70% glycol by volume. 
     
     
         3 . The method of removing water vapor from air given the system of  claim 1 , comprising:
 channeling the chilled glycol solution through the air of a evaporative cooler;   allowing the glycol to chill the air;   allowing the moisture in the air to condensate;   using the air to cool a space; and   repeating the process while the evaporative cooler is in use.
