Advantages and disadvantages of absorption systems

Benefits
• Use of thermal energy instead of electrical energy
• Recovery of rejected heat in installations with turbines
• Features few moving internal parts, which ensures quiet and vibration-free operation

Disadvantages
• High consumption of thermal energy in the generator (the energy used is higher than the Refrigeration capacity)
• High cost
• Requires perfect sealing (can work in high vacuum)
• Lithium bromide: crystallization
