ABSTRACT:
A humidity control device is for controlling the humidity of air in a target space, and the humidity control device comprises: a processor for controlling the humidity of air in the target space by passing air through a hygroscopic liquid L; a regenerator for regenerating the hygroscopic liquid L used for the process by the processor; a hygroscopic-liquid pipe path (50), provided so as to pass through a ventilation opening (70) intended for ventilating the target space, for transferring the hygroscopic liquid L from the processor to the regenerator; and a discharged-air-utilizing regeneration unit (60) for regenerating the hygroscopic liquid L by passing air to be discharged from the target space through the ventilation opening (70) through the hygroscopic liquid L flowing through the hygroscopic-liquid pipe path (50) toward the regenerator. A humidity control device whose energy utilization efficiency is improved is thus provided.
