Desalination The solar humidification dehumidification method HDH is a thermal water desalination method. It is based on evaporation of sea water or brackish water and consecutive condensation of the generated humid air, mostly at ambient pressure. This process mimics the natural water cycle , but over a much shorter time frame. The simplest configuration is implemented in the solar still , evaporating the sea water inside a glass covered box and condensing the water vapor on the lower side of the glass cover. More sophisticated designs separate the solar heat gain section from the evaporation condensation chamber. An optimized design comprises separated evaporation and condensation sections. A significant part of the heat consumed for evaporation can be regained during condensation. An example for such an optimized thermal desalination cycle is the multiple effect humidification MEH method of transportation. Solar humidification takes place in every greenhouse. Water evaporates from the surfaces of soil, water and plants because of thermal input. In this way the humidification process is naturally integrated within the architecture of the greenhouse. Several companies like Seawater greenhouse utilize this inherent feature of a greenhouse in order to conduct desalination inside the atmosphere of the facility. This integrated biotectural system mimics the natural process of cloud formation respectively desalination exactly.

Desalination Vapor compression desalination refers to a distillation process where the evaporation of sea or saline water is obtained by the application of heat delivered by compressed vapor. Since compression of the vapor increases both the pressure and temperature of the vapor, it is possible to use the latent heat rejected during condensation to generate additional vapor. The effect of compressing water vapor can be done by two methods. The first method utilizes an ejector system motivated by steam at manometric pressure from an external source in order to recycle vapor from the desalination process. The form is designated Ejecto or Thermo Compression. Using the second method, water vapor is compressed by means of a mechanical device, electrically driven in most cases. This form is designated mechanical vapor compression MVC . The MVC process comprises two different versions Vapor Compression VC and Vacuum Vapor Compression VVC . VC designates those systems in which the evaporation effect takes place at manometric pressure, and VVC the systems in which evaporation takes place at sub atmospheric pressures under vacuum . The compression is mechanically powered by something such as a compression turbine. As vapor is generated, it is passed over to a heat exchanging condenser which returns the vapor to water. The resulting fresh water is moved to storage while the heat removed during condensation is transmitted to the remaining feedstock. The VVC process is the more efficient distillation process available in the market today in terms of energy consumption and water recovery ratio. As the system is electrically driven, it is considered a clean process, it is highly reliable and simple to operate and maintain.

A Hook gauge evaporimeter is a precision instrument used to measure changes in water levels due to evaporation . The device consists of a sharp hook suspended from a micrometer cylinder, with the body of the device having arms which rest on the rim of a still well . The still well serves to isolate the device from any ripples that might be present in the sample being measured, while allowing the water level to equalize. The measurement is taken by turning the knob to lower the hook through the surface of the water until capillary action causes a small depression to form around the tip of the hook. The knob is then turned slowly until the depression pops, with the measurement showing on the micrometer scale. Evaporation rate is determined by a sequence of measurements over a set time interval.

Refimprove date December 2009 Geothermal desalination is a process under development for the production of fresh water using geothermal power heat energy . Claimed benefits of this method of desalination are that it requires less maintenance than reverse osmosis membranes and that the primary energy input is from geothermal heat , which is a low environmental impact source of energy. Around 1995, entrepreneur Douglas Firestone from Nevada came up with an idea to use geothermal water directly as a source for desalination. In 1998, several individuals began working with evaporation condensation air loop water desalination . The experiment was successful and a proof of concept , proving that geothermal waters could be used as process water to produce potable water in 2001. In 2005 to 2009 some testing was done in a sixth prototype of a device referred to as a delta t device, a closed air loop, atmospheric pressure, evaporation condensation loop geothermally powered desalination device. The device used filtered sea water from Scripps Institute of Oceanography and reduced the salt concentration from 35,000 ppm to 51 ppm. A total of six prototypes and six modifications demonstrated that, with process water approaching 210 degrees Fahrenheit 100 degrees Celsius and a chill source about 35 F 2 C , a full size device would produce about one acre foot 600 m of water per day. Salt concentration in the wastewater would only be about 10 above the level of the original water, thus, from, say, 35,000 to about 38,000 parts per million , well within the ability of osmoregulation osmoregulators to adjust.

Unreferenced auto yes date December 2009 Image SeaSmoke.jpg thumb Sea smoke on the Atlantic Ocean Sea smoke , or arctic steam fog , is a cloud over the sea , which could otherwise be called fog , and is usually formed when very cold air moves over warmer water . The physics are in principle similar to lake effect snow . Evaporation from exposed water surface depends upon its vapor pressure. If the water temperature is greater than that of the nearby air, the evaporation continues faster than the air can absorb the water vapor, even though the cool air s relative humidity is 100 . This further evaporates immediately and re condenses as visible fog, which rises up in convective currents. If the wind blows across cold icy areas like the Arctic, the breaks in the ice sheets where clear water is exposed, the water surface steams up into the air, producing fog. The conditions required for such fog formation include not only low surface temperature but also a preexisting surface inversion of temperature to inhibit the rapid development of instability.
