Abstract (en)

The machine has a cooler for condensation of gaseous refrigerant and/or gaseous sorbent mixture (3). Utilization of heat applied for a cooling unit is provided as process heat in a working operation of the machine. A heating medium is provided for driving out refrigerant from the refrigerant/sorbent mixture. A heat exchanger is provided for heat transfer between liquid sorbent e.g. water/lithium bromide solution, and refrigerant mixture. A storage tank is provided for storage of fresh water. An independent claim is also included for a method for drying moist cleaned articles in a household machine in a work space of a household machine.
