A Review of the effect of Magnetic Field Using Nano fluids and Ultrasonic Amplification Technology on Water Desalination by Solar Stills

Abstract: Limited access to potable water sources is turned to one of the basic human concerns today. Therefore, solar desalination units as a cost-efficient solution have attracted more attention in recent years. Solar stills are devices of great interest to researchers because of the low cost of construction, having no complex mechanisms, and less need for service and maintenance. Much study has been recently done in relation to modeling, economization, and optimization of these devices, most of which were carried out in Asian countries with hot and dry climates. Regarding that solar desalination systems often enjoy low efficiency; the present work has reviewed researches conducted by others to evaluate the effect of magnetic impact using Ferrofluid and also ultrasonic waves as known approaches to enhance the performance and water output of such devices. The method and findings of the previous scientific studies are discussed comprehensively in this review.
