, desalination systems powered stand-alone by renewable energy sources are discussed, with a focus on wave power for the Swedish … island Gotland. The objective is to evaluate the opportunity of using wave power for a desalination system on Gotland. The … method includes assessing the electricity generation from a wave power park to power a desalination plant. The results show …

This paper describes the theoretical rationale for a new low temperature phase-change desalination process, and six … examples of applications to illustrate how this process can be engineered for sustainable desalination. In this process … any mechanical energy input. Thermodynamic advantages and benefits of low temperature phase-change desalination are …

brackish and seawater desalination. Another potential source of energy is the hydrostatic pressure at a sufficient operative … compare well with the usual energy requirement for desalination, between 3 and 10kWh for 1m3 of produced fresh water. However …

. Desalination has been a key proponent to meet the future challenges due to decreasing availability of fresh water. However …, desalination uses significant amount of energy, today mostly from fossil fuels. It is, therefore, reasonable to rely on renewable … sources. The present study deals with the energy-efficient seawater desalination system utilizing renewable energy sources and …
