Biography

Dr. Jaradat holds a PhD in the area of liquid desiccant systems and has more than 20 years’ research and work experience in open and closed cycle desiccant systems, and practical (experimental) experience in the field of adiabatic and non-adiabatic (internally cooled/heated) absorbers and regenerators. In addition to several publications in this area, he also participated in building two liquid desiccant systems pilot plants in Germany for agricultural and HVAC applications during two large scale projects (KLIMZUG Nordhessen and OpenSorp, each with a fund of 5M Euros). Dr. Jaradat has published more than 10 research papers in liquid desiccant systems; improvement of components, building of pilot plants, laboratory and field measurements, modelling for several applications.
