This paper presents a novel compression-adsorption hybrid that symbiotically combines adsorption and CO2 compression cooling devices. The seemingly low efficiency of each cycle individually is overcome by an amalgamation with the other. Hence, both heat and water vapour refrigerant mass are recovere...
