Potentials of porous materials and thermal control system for performance enhancement of humidification-dehumidification desalination unit powered by solar dish collector: Experimental study with 4E analysis
A sustainable solution to water shortage crises is desalination technology. Solar-based humidification-dehumidification desalination systems are a cost-effective method of providing water in remote areas. In the current study, a solar parabolic dish collector-powered humidification-dehumidification desalination system was studied experimentally. An auxiliary heater with a controller box was used to maintain the system temperature at higher feed water flow rates. The main test scenarios were different feed water flow rates at different salinity values. This study evaluates the use of machining metal scraps as a porous material's effects on the system's dehumidifier. Based on the results, for the feed saline water flow rate of 1.2 l/min and salinity value of 5000 ppm, the maximum gain output ratio and specific energy consumption of 0.24 and 3.48 kWh/m3 were calculated for the desalination system. The utilization of porous material in the dehumidifier enhanced the thermal efficiency of the desalination cycle by 1.49 %, from 8.06 % to 9.55 %. The freshwater production flow rate was improved from 3.95 to 4.76 l/day. According to the economic and environmental analysis, the freshwater production cost was calculated at 0.043 USD/l, and the application of the porous material in the dehumidifier enhanced carbon dioxide emissions reduction by 0.14 tons.
期刊介绍:
International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer serves as a world forum for the rapid dissemination of new ideas, new measurement techniques, preliminary findings of ongoing investigations, discussions, and criticisms in the field of heat and mass transfer. Two types of manuscript will be considered for publication: communications (short reports of new work or discussions of work which has already been published) and summaries (abstracts of reports, theses or manuscripts which are too long for publication in full). Together with its companion publication, International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, with which it shares the same Board of Editors, this journal is read by research workers and engineers throughout the world.
