Solar still, Wastewater Treatment, reuseAbstract
One of the renewable energy sources with numerous useful applications is solar energy. Solar-powered wastewater desalination is a top study area that has drawn interest from scientists and researchers worldwide. However, effectively cleaning and reusing industrial and other wastewaters can be difficult at times. Both the environment and human health are negatively impacted when contaminants are present in wastewater. In the current investigation, effluent from tanneries and cities was put into a solar still and allowed to evaporate in the presence of natural sunlight. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) and pH levels of different wastewaters were measured. Lastly, the test findings demonstrated that following the subsequent sun still evaporation operation, the water quality had greatly improved. This is a method of treating.
