摘要

Process for thermal recovery of energy from the environment comprises absorbing energy from the environment in a collector containing a liquid, evaporating part of this liquid, and transporting the vapor into an adsorption heat reactor and a heat exchanger and then back to the collector in a liquid state. A liquid mixture used in the collector has a first component that is preferably evaporated. A low vacuum is produced on the surface of the liquid and the supply from the heat exchanger is guided via the inner surface of the wall. The first component is guided with increased pressure via the outer surface of the wall. The first component is fed into the adsorption heat reactor with residual heat in a gaseous manner via a non-return valve. The solid is selected for reaction with both components. The resulting vapor mixture is liquefied in the heat exchanger and dissolved in the second component. This is transferred via level control into the collector. In a second functional phase the predominantly second component is transferred from the base of the collector into a liquid form in the adsorption heat reactor and is partly evaporated with the first component and likewise liquefied in the heat exchanger. The functional phases are controlled by the energy input or liquid state in the collector. An independent claim is also included for a thermal plant for carrying out the above process.
