Case Study

Achieving ROI, Humidity Targets & Production Floor Target Conditions

An aging actively regenerated solid desiccant system was replaced with one Liquid Desiccant dehumidifier to reduce energy consumption by ~60% and achieve production floor humidity targets.



The Results

Achieved Humidity Targets, Reduced Energy Consumption, Faster ROI

Achieved humidity targets

Project ROI achieved break-even in 2.3 years

Reduced energy consumption by ~60% vs previously installed Active Desiccant system


The Challenge

Replace the aging actively regenerated solid desiccant system with one Liquid Desiccant dehumidifier to feed treated outside air to the chewing gum production area.

The project aimed to improve production floor humidity conditions to 45% RH ±5% while reducing overall energy consumption. Key goals included achieving precise humidity targets, lowering energy use by approximately 60% compared to the previously installed active desiccant system, and ensuring a rapid project ROI with break-even achieved in 2.3 years.


The Solution

Replace current solid desiccant system with one Liquid Desiccant dehumidifier.
