Abstract:
Recently, there is growing demand for energy saving technologies in buildings due to global warming and environmental impact issue. As a result to this, energy-efficient technologies are becoming more popular amongst researchers and designers. In this regards, to fulfil energy conservation demands, researchers have focused on the development of advance heat or energy recovery with energy-efficient ventilation system. The aim of this paper is to review heat or energy recovery technologies for building applications. The reviews were discussed according to the concept and classification of heat or energy recovery based on types and flow arrangement. The developments of these technologies in integrated energy-efficient system such as mechanical and passive ventilation, air conditioning, dehumidification and photovoltaic panel have also been presented.
