Makara Journal of Technology
Solar-powered distillation is a seawater distillation method that utilizes solar heat as its main energy source for the purpose producing freshwater and a by-product of the distillation process in the form of salt. This study aims to determine the performance of a solar seawater distillation design with a semi-batch system by combining a fin-type absorber plate and a triangular prism cover. This design is equipped with a reflector and absorber plate, which has a surface area of 0.3969 m2 with a volume capacity of seawater that can be accommodated in a basin of ±24 liters. It uses a knockdown system …
