>>Dear Sir/ Madam,

I am a Ph.D. research student in Building Technology Group,
Architecture Department at Massachusetts Institute
of Technology. My interest is to develop a dehumidification system or
technique which can be incorporated into building enclosure,
particularly for those buildings in tropical climate.

With the sustainable design concept in mind, I am looking for a way to
dehumidify the natural ventilation passively to reduce building energy
consumption. Is there someone or research group in your organization
which study or work on this subject area? Or if you would please
advise me as to whom I should get in touch with. I am in desperate need
of
guidance on this research topic. It has been very difficult to find
information on passive dehumidification system.

Please advise.

Thank you very much for your time and attention.

Dear Singh,

Also check out the University of Texas-Austin
Center for Building Technology

They have done a lot of work on various passive cooling/dehumidification
systems.

Regards to the folk at my Alma Mater! (S.M.Arch.S. - 82) and good luck with
the thesis!
