Experimental and economic analysis of energy storage‐based single‐slope solar still with hollow‐finned absorber basin
The paucity of drinking water is an alarming glitch across the globe. The conversion of available seawater into drinking water by utilizing renewable energy is the best way to surmount this challenge. Desalination through solar still is one of the notable, monetary, and viable processes among various desalination approaches. The current research aims to augment the potable water yield of single‐slope solar still by using a hollow‐finned absorber basin inserted into paraffin wax—phase change material (PCM). The effect of hollow‐finned absorber basin on the yield of solar still is investigated separately, with and without PCM, and compared with the results of conventional solar still (CSS). In the first set of experiments, the CSS and solar still with a hollow‐finned absorber basin without PCM (SSHF) are investigated. In the second set of experiments, the CSS and solar still with a hollow‐finned absorber basin inserted into PCM (SSHFP) are investigated. The experimental results reported that the CSS is having almost the same yield on the 2 days of testing. The yield of SSHF and SSHFP is increased by 15.7% and 52.4%, respectively, when compared with CSS. The results of the economic analysis proved that the payback period and cost per liter of freshwater produced from SSHFP are comparatively better than SSHF and CSS.
