Salinity impacts on humidification dehumidification (HDH) desalination systems: review.

The use of humidification-dehumidification water desalination technology has been shown to be a practical means of meeting the demand for freshwater. The aim of this review is to investigate the impact of salinity on HDH techniques that have various benefits in terms of both economics and the environment, including the capacity to operate at low temperatures, utilize sustainable energy sources, the need for low maintenance, and straightforward construction requirements. Also, in this review, it is observed that the HDH system's components are strong and capable of treating severely salinized water.

Exergoeconomic and enviroeconomic evaluations of conventional solar still using PCM and electric heater powered by solar energy: an experimental study.

Solar stills are used in distant and arid areas to convert brackish or salty water into potable water fit for human use in a simple, affordable, and effective manner. Even when PCM materials are used, typical solar systems still have minimal production per day. In this study, experimental tests were carried out in order to increase the performance of a single-slope solar still combined with PCM material (paraffin wax) and a solar-powered electric heater.
