ABSORPTION-MEMBRANE INSTALLATION Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC F25B30/04 

FIELD: refrigeration industry; heat-and-power engineering; other industries; production of the absorption- membrane installations.

SUBSTANCE: the invention presents the absorption- membrane installation, which ensures production of cold and heat energy working as the thermal pump by extraction from the strong solution of the refrigerant through the semi-permeable membrane under the pressure exceeding the osmotic pressure formed by the pump, the boiling of the refrigerant heated from the external source of the low-potential power at the low pressure with production of the refrigerating effect and absorption of the formed vapors by the weak solution of the refrigerant with production of the heat energy of the condensation and dissolution. The pressure under the membrane is maintained above the pressure of the refrigerant boiling at the environmental temperature. The expansion refrigerator is installed streamwise the refrigerant weak solution and behind the membrane block with usage of the mechanical power of the expansion refrigerator onto the drive of the pump and (or) on the drive of the booster-compressor compressing the vapors of the refrigerant till their mixing with the refrigerant weak solution and absorption. The invention usage will allow to expand the capabilities of the installation.

EFFECT: the invention ensures expansion of the capabilities of the installation.
