What statement is true concerning a liquid desiccant cargo-hold dehumidification system?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option C — Water vapor from the humid air inlet from the cargo hold is condensed and absorbed into the liquid desiccant by means of a cooling coil located in the humidification chamber.
In the humidification chamber of a liquid desiccant system, incoming humid cargo hold air contacts the desiccant solution. A cooling coil removes the latent heat of absorption, causing water vapor from the airstream to condense directly into the liquid desiccant.
