Adsorption heat pump (AdHP) is a potential technology to recover and storage low-temperature waste heat. This paper presents an experimental research on direct low-pressure process steam generation from hot water based on superhydrophobic surface-modified zeolite 13X. The measured water contact angle of the modified zeolite is larger than 150°, which restricts free water entering the pores inside the zeolite particles. Cyclic experiments are conducted for performance evaluation. High-temperature steam (205–229°C, 0.1–0.3 MPa) is generated from hot water (72°C) in the AdHP driven by dry air (130°C). The temperature of generated steam is promoted with increasing preset steam pressure, among which the temperature is raised by about 23°C at 0.3 MPa. As the boiling point of water rises simultaneously, the sensible heat demand is increased. Thus, the mass of the steam is accordingly decreased. GTL (gross temperature lift) reaches 130°C. When the preset pressure is increased, COP h  (coefficient of performance for heating) and SHP (specific heat power) for direct steam generation are decreased by 36% and 39%, respectively. One feasible option to elevate these two indicators is to increase the inlet water to near boiling water to match the change in the preset pressure. However, the GTL will be decreased based on the option. Balance should be made based on the choice of design for practical application.
