Abstract – Problem of heat losstakes place through various processes in process industries and from combustions in engines and boilers which contribute to increase in temperature of the globe resulting in global warming as the heat lost in such processes contains polluting agents these pollute the environment which is resulting in depletion of ozone layer, on other hand for the comfort conditioning, human needs of cooling are increasing day by day and the large amount of electricity produced is utilised by the cooling system all over the globe in order to overcome the problem of global warming and ozone layer depletion an waste heat powered refrigeration system can be designed abbreviated as adsorption cooling system, which is an eco-friendly system as it does not use of any environmental hazardous refrigerants.This paper extant an overall review of what configuration of adsorber bed heat exchanger are used for the adsorption refrigeration system are discussed in detail with their heat and mass transfer characteristics.
