Abstract
A salt bed temperature analysis evidenced a reaction front moving within the reactive layer from the moist air inlet to its outlet. A mass transfer study showed marked changes in the reactive bed permeability during the reaction (by one order of magnitude) and with the reactive bed density (from 10â9 to 10â12 m2 when density range from 300 to 600 kW h mâ3). During the reaction an asymmetric time course of the bed permeability was also highlighted: as f(X) in dehydration and f(1/X) in hydration.
