Solar ponds

Solar evaporators are widely used in salt mining from seawaters or saline waters. The potash industry in Jordan and other countries utilized solar energy in the evaporation process to concentrate seawater where salt starts to deposit. In this work, the thermal performance of such evaporators was ana

The project concerns the design, optimization, construction, assembling, start-up and extensive monitoring of an experimental plant consisting of a full-titanium desalinator coupled with a small solar pond. The operational tests took place at the site of the solar pond of the University of Ancona (I
