摘要： An air conditioning method and apparatus for electrochemically regulating a humidity and an oxygen-concentration within a case by the use of an ion exchanger polymer electrolyte. Where the humidity and the oxygen-concentration within the case are reduced, a cell comprising an anode, a cathode and an anion exchanger polymer electrolyte sandwiched between both the electrodes is arranged so that a surface of the anode is in contact with an atmospheric air outside the case and a surface of the cathode is in contact with an ambient atmosphere inside the case and DC voltage is applied between both the electrodes. On the other hand, where the humidity and the oxygen-concentration within the case are increased, the cell having the similar construction is arranged so that the surface of the anode is in contact with the ambient atmosphere inside the case and the surface of the cathode is in contact with the atmospheric air outside the case and DC voltage is applied between both the electrodes.
