A liquid desiccant system including a high desorber, a low desorber, and an absorber that are in fluid communication with a working solution, where the high desorber provides rejected water vapor from the working fluid for condensation in a condenser of the low desorber that provides heat for rejection of additional water from the working solution in the low desorber effectively multiplying the heat provided for desorption. The low desorber provided the concentrated working solution to the absorber where water from ambient air is condensed into the concentrated working solution to provide a dilute working solution within a working solution conduit of the absorber that is thermally coupled to an internal cooler of the absorber. In some embodiments, the working solution can be an aqueous solution of at least one ionic liquid.

A sorbent material may be disposed within a volume of at least one of the first fin layer or the second fin layer.

Wet-type carbon dioxide capturing equipment includes a CO.sub.2 absorption tower where CO.sub.2 of an exhaust gas reacts with an absorbent, a CO.sub.2 stripping tower where CO.sub.2 is separated from a rich solution absorbed the CO.sub.2 in the CO.sub.2 absorption tower, a reboiler for supplying thermal energy to the CO.sub.2 stripping tower to separate the CO.sub.2 from the rich solution in the CO.sub.2 stripping tower, a first heat exchanger for heating the rich solution by exchanging heat between a lean solution having the CO.sub.2 separated therefrom in the CO.sub.2 stripping tower and the rich solution, a mechanical vapor recompressor (MVR) for compressing a CO.sub.2 gas separated in the CO.sub.2 stripping tower, and a second heat exchanger for separating a portion of CO.sub.2 from the rich solution by heating the rich solution by exchanging heat between the CO.sub.2 gas compressed in the MVR and the rich solution passing through the first heat exchanger, in which the rich solution having CO.sub.2 that is not separated in the second heat exchanger is input to the CO.sub.2 stripping tower where the CO.sub.2 is separated.

The present invention relates to a method for recovering carbon dioxide from an absorbent rich on gaseous carbon dioxide, in which the energy used for separation of absorbent and carbon dioxide in a stripping column is reduced by using two stripper columns having different operating pressures and recycling heat transfer fluid from the stripper off gas in an energy efficient manner.

[Problem to be Solved]

To provide a gas humidity regulating method and a regulator that can regulate a temperature during humidity control and improve humidity-control efficiency. In an air humidity regulating method for gas subjected to treatment, a first medium 22 is caused to flow onto a heat exchanging pipe 17 of a gas-liquid contact part 18 in a dehumidifier 11; meanwhile, a second medium 24 is passed through the heat exchanging pipe 17. In this state, air is fed into a gas-liquid contact case 13 from an inlet port 14 and gas-liquid contact is made by the first medium 22 on the gas-liquid contact part 18 so as to absorb water content from the air into the first medium 22. The first medium 22 contains an ionic liquid having high absorbency. The temperature of the first medium 22 is regulated by the second medium 24. After that, treated air is discharged from an outlet port 15 of the gas-liquid contact case 13.
