SOLAR PLANT FOR WATER PURIFICATION AND DESALINATION Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC C02F1/14 E03B3/04 E03B3/28 B01D1/22 

FIELD: process engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to solar power engineering. Water flows into tight case of plant 1 via bottom branch pipe 3. Plant case inside is heated by solar radiation. Compressed air is fed via aerator 14 from receiver 8 of compressor 9. Air from plant case central part is bled via branch pipe 10 to inlet of compressor 9. Top surface of translucent baffle 4 is cooled by water fed by air lift 11 into distribution trough 15. Cooling water runs free over cooled surface of baffle 4 into water source. Water from formed steam-air mix is condensed on inner surface of said translucent baffle 4 to flow into condensate collection trough 6. Cleaned water is bled from trough 6 via branch pipe 7.

EFFECT: higher efficiency.
