Experimental Investigation for Performance Enhancement of Solar Still Using Solar Pond

Abstract

Today fresh water demand is increasing continuously, because of the industrial development, intensified agriculture, improvement of standard of life and increase of the world population. Lack of fresh water is a prime factor in inhibiting regional economic development. Seawater and sometimes brackish water distillation constitute an important option for satisfying current and future demands for fresh water in arid regions. Distillation can be achieved by using a number of techniques. It is said that presently more than 2000 million people do not get potable water. Looking at the scarcity and large demand of fresh water, needs the water distillation system which is operated on renewable energy sources. Solar still is the best option for the domestic purpose to get the distilled water. The productivity can be enhanced by applying methods like black balls of spherical shape, by keeping optimum depth of basin water, by integrating solar still with evaporative tube collector or by incorporating the still with two glass cover.
