Sustainable Hybrid Cooling and Dehumidification Strategies for Controlled Environments addresses the critical need for energy-efficient climate control solutions in storage, industry, and agriculture amid climate change and rising energy costs. Sections explore innovative hybrid systems, including evaporative cooling, radiative cooling, desiccant systems, and renewable energy integration to meet the demands of sustainable environmental management. The book's contents encompass thermally driven desiccant dehumidification, phase change materials, solar thermal collectors, AI and IoT-based control systems, and applications in agriculture. It combines theoretical foundations, experimental methods, case studies, and practical applications, offering a holistic view of current advancements and future trends.Designed for practitioners, researchers, and graduate students, the book provides actionable insights to enhance energy efficiency, reduce environmental impacts, and support the global energy transition. Its interdisciplinary approach and inclusion of techno-economic analyses make it an essential resource for developing sustainable climate-control solutions aligned with UN SDGs, particularly SDG 7, 9, 11, and 13.Presents hybrid cooling and dehumidification systems, integrating renewable energyExplores advanced control strategies, including AI and IoT applicationsProvides practical case studies for sustainable climate control solutionsAddresses energy efficiency and environmental impacts in controlled environmentsCombines thermal engineering, renewable energy, and agricultural applications

This book reports thermodynamic investigation, analyses, and options of temperature/humidity control systems and their technologies for agricultural applications including (but not limited to) fruits and vegetable storage, poultry air-conditioning, livestock thermal comfort, and wet market air-conditioning. The optimum temperature and humidity requirements for these agricultural applications are identified. Consequently, energy-efficient heat pump options are explored accordingly. The book helps to understand and to apply the thermodynamic knowledge of the energy-efficient systems for agricultural applications.
