A total heat exchange element includes a plurality of partition members made of a material that contains cellulose as a main component, a spacing member made of a material that contains cellulose as a main component, and an adhesive portion bonding the partition members and the spacing member together. The partition members are configured as flat sheets, and are stacked with a predetermined distance between them. The spacing member is disposed between adjacent ones of the stacked partition members to maintain the distance between them. The total heat exchange element has a first air flow path and a second air flow path alternately formed with one of the partition members interposed between the first and second air flow paths. The adhesive portion contains, as an adhesive component, cellulose having a smaller diameter than both of the cellulose forming the partition members and the cellulose forming the spacing member.

Several innovative technologies, including pressure-drop minimization, advanced refractory high entropy alloys, and advanced manufacturing can provide a compact heat exchanger that extends the state-of-the-art heat-exchanger operating range. The compact heat exchanger can reduce pressure drop losses by 100 to 500%, while retaining most of the heat transfer. The compact heat exchanger can be fabricated from refractory high entropy alloys that have favorable corrosion, thermal fatigue, and creep properties at high temperatures and pressures. Therefore, the compact heat exchanger using high entropy alloys can operate at >800° C. and 80 bars.
