Basin-Type Solar Distiller Associated with PVT Collectors—A Comprehensive Review
Abstract Potable water is one of the prime needs for the existence of life on earth. However, the amount of water on earth is getting polluted due to industrial growth and fast urbanization. The need for potable water is gradually increasing due to exponential growth in human residents. The use of contaminated water is responsible for many waterborne diseases and it sometimes leads to death depending on the intensity of contamination . There are various methods for producing potable water; however, solar desalination is one of the best economical and user-friendly methods for potable water production as its operation resembles natural hydrological cycle and it works solely on solar energy. Basin-type active solar stills are capable of providing potable water as well as DC electric power to the society. The potable water yield for passive solar still ranges from 1 to 3 kg/m2 and that for active solar still, it ranges from 4 to 15 kg/m2. In this work, basin-type solar still integrated with PVT collectors has been reviewed and the future scope has been presented.
