Abstract
A dehumidifying system is disclosed which comprises a dehumidifying element to extract moisture from the air, a rotor to rotate the dehumidifying element, and a heat pump to cool and heat the air within the dehumidifying system. The dehumidifying unit has at least a regeneration zone and a dehumidifying zone. The dehumidifying zone is provided at a flow passage of supply air supplied to a low dew-point chamber and dehumidifies the supply air with a dehumidifying member. The regeneration zone allows regenerating air to pass through the dehumidifying member to regenerate the dehumidifying member. The heat pump is comprised of at least a condenser and an evaporator. The condenser of the heat pump is used to at least heat air passing through the regenerating zone and the evaporator of the heat pump is used to at least cool the supply air before it enters the dehumidifying zone.
