MIT Unveils Portable Solar-Powered Water Desalination System

مشاركة بواسطة Khalid » الثلاثاء أكتوبر 19, 2010 6:19 pm

A team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Field and Space Robotic Laboratory has designed a new solar-powered water desalination system to provide drinking water to disaster zones and disadvantaged parts of the planet. Desalination systems often require a lot of energy and a large infrastructure to support them, but MIT's compact system is able to cope due to its ingenious design. The system's photovoltaic panel is able to generate power for the pump, which in turn pushes undrinkable seawater through a permeable membrane. MIT's prototype can reportedly produce 80 gallons of drinking water per day, depending on weather conditions.

To be honest, the only long term solution to Iraq's water problem is solar thermal combined desalination and power generation. This does not use any photovoltaics and the technology to construct it is within Iraq's capabilities. Also this provides "district" and "national" level of clean potable water and electricity as well as creating a massive new source of employment for Iraq's unemployed skilled and unskilled populace.
