A transport container for transporting temperature-sensitive transport goods comprising a chamber for receiving the transport goods, a housing enclosing the chamber and at least one cooling element for temperature control of the chamber, wherein the at least one cooling element comprises:
- an evaporation element with a cooling surface,
- a desiccant for receiving coolant evaporated in the evaporation element,
- a transport path for transporting the evaporated coolant to the desiccant,
- a reservoir for the coolant which can be brought into fluid communication with the evaporation element,
- wherein means are provided for evaporating the coolant stored in the desiccant and that the desiccant is connected to the reservoir for transporting the evaporated coolant to the reservoir, wherein the means for evaporating the coolant comprise a heating device and the heating device comprises heating coils extending through the desiccant.
