Recent results on adsorption heat pumps have indicated the technical feasibility of these types of systems, although the problems related to the inefficient thermal transmission between the external energy vector and the solid adsorbent still remain. In order to solve these problems, a prefixed-shaped form of the solid adsorbent has been prepared by a patented procedure developed in this Institute. In the present paper the preparation methodology, the material and the adsorption measurements are described.
