Fresh water created from sea water with solar energy

Creating fresh water from sea water using solar energy is a new success for the scientists from the Institute for Hydropower and Renewable Energy under the Vietnam Academy for Water Resources.

The equipment is supplied with water by a pump or water flows into the equipment from a higher water container.

After the water is heated by solar energy, the water will evaporate and then condense on the inner surface of the glass and flows into the tank. The equipment has an average capacity of over six liters/day and it also collects the rain water on the glass of the equipment when raining.

Specifically, the equipment is made of a composite and can be easily installed as part of a larger system of individual modules, suitable with any terrain or surface such as ground, roof or terrace.

The equipment has been successfully tested in Cam Ranh city (Khanh Hoa province) and Do Son district (Hai Phong city).
