Enhancement of distillate quantity and quality of a hybrid solar desalination system

Abstract Clean water is a necessity, yet it scarce due to the increase in demand. Desalination most reliable way of getting clean water. The commonest desalination process used and suitable rural areas solar still distillation. Although faces low production requires enhancements alongside quality checks. This study aims develop an improved system with quantity quality. was achieved by introducing heating element powered photovoltaic pre-treatment using granulated charcoal different dosages because its adsorption properties reduce pollutant strength before desalination. results showed 300% freshwater yield from conventional system. reduces 25.08%. indicates significant improvement. In that regard, work significantly will contribute improving still.
