  • Publication number: 20170189830
    Abstract: A system for separating salt and/or minerals from ocean, sea, brackish, or brine water collected in a water enclosure. The water enclosure is heated with solar radiation to increase a rate of evaporation of the saline water and produce humidity or moisture within the water enclosure for conversion to desalinated water. Due to condensation, water collects as droplets on cold surfaces of cooling coils when the humidity or moisture comes in contact with the cold surfaces of the cooling coils. The water droplets, which are desalinated, are gathered by condensation capture pans. Output lines channel the collected desalinated water out of the pans for consumption and/or storage. Re-saturation units increase a rate of condensation within the water enclosure, thereby, increasing a collection of the desalinated water.
