Intermittent Adsorption Chiller Demo

[buenijo]

Excellent video demonstrating and explaining how absorption/adsorption chillers work. Over the years I've made several posts describing various heat powered refrigeration systems including discussions of vacuum systems that use water as the refrigerant and solid adsorbents like silica gel and zeolite (along with other refrigerants and liquid absorbents). I'm posting this only because this demo is so clear that it can help many to understand the process who many not understand a written description.

Looks like a nice way to chill your champagne (or beer if you drink the stuff). Not sure of the cost or if it’s single use. The demo showed it being reusable in the small glass.

Opps, says the beer keg is reusable, now curious of the cost
