[BLDG-SIM] Solar desiccant dehumidifiers available yet?

[Marcus Sheffer]

Here are a few to check out.  I have not personally used any yet.  The
SunChill product was used on a LEED Platinum Audubon project near LA I
think.

The rep tells me the last one can use solar thermal to heat the
desiccant.

Re-post, don't think the first time worked.

Does anyone know of a desiccant dehumidifier or absorption chiller
product that is regenerated by solar thermal energy, now commercially
available?  I have seen some academic studies of these machines but I
can't find a commercial product.  

We're looking for a capacity that is suitable for small buildings:
residential, small commercial, or small hotel use.

Thank you.
