TLDR
A desiccant assisted air conditioning system for delivering dehumidified refrigerated supply air into a conditioned space and with return therefrom divided between recirculation air and exhaust-relief air employed to remove heat resulting from dehumification and employing waste heat from refrigeration as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract
A desiccant assisted air conditioning system for delivering dehumidified refrigerated supply air into a conditioned space and with return therefrom divided between recirculation air and exhaust-relief air employed to remove heat resulting from dehumification and employing waste heat from refrigeration for desiccant regeneration.

Process and apparatus for dehumidification and VOC odor remediation

TL;DR: In this article, a process and apparatus for the dehumidification and VOC odor remediation of an air stream withdrawn from the passenger compartment of a transportation vehicle is disclosed, which employs a continuously rotating wheel support and adsorbent selective for the adsorption of water and odour.
Patent

Desiccant based humidification/dehumidification system

TL;DR: In this article, an apparatus and a method for automatically regulating the environmental system of a motorized vehicle and other articles having storage compartments is presented, where the air streams are altered so that the designated air stream remains in either the hydrous or anhydrous desiccant, thus producing a constant air flow containing either an increased relative humidity or an air stream with a reduced relative humidity.
Patent

Air-conditioning system

TL;DR: In this article, a desiccant air-conditioning system with a heat pump and a cold-heat medium passageway is proposed. But the desiccants are regenerated by the heat of the exhaust gas generated by the second evaporator in the second cycle.
Patent

Ventilating dehumidifying system

TL;DR: In this article, a desiccant wheel is used to dehumidify incoming air by exchanging moisture from an inflow current of air with an outflow current of water.
Patent

Desiccant refrigerant dehumidifier systems

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for conditioning air for an enclosure in which a supply air stream is cooled with a refrigerant system containing a variable compressor by passing the air over a cooling coil to reduce the temperature thereof.

Heat pump apparatus and method

Joel Harband
TL;DR: In this article, a temperature and humidity control system including a heat pump including a compressor, an evaporator and a condenser, was presented, with the first apparatus operating in a cooling/dehumidifying mode for supplying air first to the evicator and from the evaporator to the dessicant material.
Patent

Solar powered heat reclamation air conditioning system

TL;DR: In this paper, the principle of thermodynamic availability is employed in a water source system advantageously storing heated and chilled fluid for subsequent heat exchange, and by diversion of high heat range fluid through a Rankine cycle prime mover for motivation of vapor compression refrigeration or the generation of electrical power dependent upon the availability of solar energy and the demand of said refrigeration, whereby heat energy is claimed and reclaimed and made available to reduce the net energy requirements necessary to provide both heating and cooling of said building complex zones.
Patent

Cogeneration and central regeneration multi-contactor air conditioning system

TL;DR: In this paper, a support system consisting of a continuously operating desiccant regenerator and a co-generator was proposed to dehumidify building return air and having heating coils employing waste heat from the prime mover and cooling coils employing regeneration chilled water and/or evaporatively chilled water.
