It's a closed loop system. The desiccant is regenerated occasionally, which can usually be arranged to happen at desirable times (cheaper/cleaner electricity depending on your priorities). The regeneration is done with a heat pump, so if it can be accomplished at a relatively low temperature the COP could be spectacular for seasonal use cases.

I can see how it would work in theory, but I'm curious how it would hold up practically ~5-10 years into use.
