Abstract:
In 25 years, just a small portion of the world's freshwater supply will still be fit for human consumption without treatment. It's crucial to keep in mind this truth. Sadly, this is entirely accurate. Our planet's water is mostly polluted, with only 1% of it being fresh and pure. Water supply filtration is crucial for this reason. We have created a tool that cleans contaminated salty water into pure drinkable water using renewable energy sources in an effort to give safe drinking water to everyone in the globe (i.e., solar energy). Radiation, convection, and conduction are the three main methods of transferring heat. The outcome is reached by evaporating the salinized or polluted water and retrieving it as pure, drinking water. The technology transforms the salt water into clean water in six hours. The use of solar thermal energy for saltwater desalination applications has only been possible so far with small-scale devices in rural areas. High capital intensity and a relatively low productivity rate in the capital cost are the main factors responsible for this. Nevertheless, due to the looming depletion of fossil fuel supplies and the increasing demand for fresh water to fulfil growing irrigation and water demands, more research and development into the desalination and purifying of water using renewable energy has been undertaken.
