Grant Activity:
Affordable solar-thermal desalination by systems design with nanomaterials
Purpose:
The project aims to advance solar-thermal desalination, aligning with the natural water cycle to foster a sustainable water-energy nexus. It proposes a multifaceted strategy to boost the system's efficiency, including the development of solar absorbing materials, high-performance heat transfer fluids, and low-friction 2D flow channels for vapour transport. Additionally, these technologies are integrated into optimized prototypes to significantly increase purified water production rates. Supported by a track record in industry translation and trans-national collaboration, the initiative seeks to address the challenge of low output that has hindered solar-thermal desalination technology.
