Development of adsorption-based atmospheric water harvesting and thermal energy storage technologies (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Sorption-based energy technologies can be used to efficiently harvest fresh water from the atmosphere and to store thermal energy for climate control. Recent advances in porous adsorbents such as metal-organic frameworks ...
