This study investigates the challenges and opportunities of desalination with renewable
energy resources in the Middle East. Middle East countries are facing severe water …

Recently, many studies have focused on desalination systems using solar energy sources
due to low energy costs, the feasibility of usage in most weathers and no use of fossil fuels …

A sustainable and cost-effective technique for desalinating water with solar energy to
alleviate the freshwater scarcity is the solar still. In this study, four different cases including …

An experimental investigation was conducted on a novel design of a stepped basin tubular
solar still (SBTSS) and a tubular solar still (TSS) under different water depths/equivalent …

In this study, energy, exergy, exergoeconomic and exergoenvironmental (4E) assessment of
new integration of solar still with photovoltaic module (PV) is performed. This new integration …

The paper encompasses the experimental performance evaluation of double slope single
basin solar still with circular and square cross-sectional hollow fins. Mild steel circular hollow …

The performance of solar stills is affected by various parameters (eg solar radiation, water
depth, thermal insulation, and the temperature difference between glass and water). There …

Solar stills are well-known tools utilized for producing fresh water from brackish or salty
water. Their easy and environmentally friendly operation and low construction cost are the …

Tubular solar still is characterized by having a large condensing and receiving surface area
compared to traditional single slope solar still. The present study aims to enhance the …

Thermal energy storage plays a vital role to solve the problems related to the intermittent
nature of solar energy. Phase change materials (PCMs) have shown promising applications …
