Experimental of membrane distillation unit coupled with a DCMD using solar energy

The results of an innovative membrane distillation system paired with an efficient and robust solar water collector that provides drinking water with high quality and a low rejection rate, independent of the salinity of the water source, are presented in this study. We then optimized and characterized the direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) experiment in a pilot plant. For the experimental tests, brackish water was used for the experimental tests, which had a salinity varying from 1 g to 20 g/l of salt. The results showed that the permeate flux increased as the temperature and feed rate increased. To evaluate the experimental and numerical records of the mathematical model of the membrane distillation unit an instance of the validation system that has been provided to evaluate the credibility of the received numerical version of the membrane distillation unit, a PC simulation software primarily based totally on the worldwide version of the unit is simulated via C++ software program to clear up the version of sun irradiation and all temperatures at the magazine productiveness of the membrane distillation unit. It was proven by means of this study that the worldwide mathematical model of the unit is capable of predicting, as it should, the tendencies of the thermal function of the membrane distillation unit.
