Review of researches and developments on solar stills
Description: Review of research and development on solar stills is presented in this paper. The coupling of a solar still with a hot water tank generally doubles the free water. The coupling of a solar collector with a still has increased productivity by 24-36%. The phase change material is more effective for lower masses of basin water on winter season. The concave solar still efficiency reached about 45%. [Source: Desalination]
