What is exergy? In the process of humidification-dehumidification of a desalination system, what information brings an exergetic study?

12 December 2018 0 708 Report

Many articles present an exergetic analysis of desalination processes, what does this bring compared to an energy study? What is the difference between exergy and free enthalpy that is used for chemical reactions?
