Research progress on integrated solar chimney system for freshwater production

太阳能烟囱技术在海水淡化中的应用研究

Abstract

Under dual crisis of energy and freshwater, solar chimney technology has been widely applied in freshwater production in recent years. According to different access to freshwater, the research progress of the coupling of solar chimney with other technologies such as solar desalination technology, humidification and humidification desalination technology, as well as integrated systems that obtain freshwater output from ambient air were summarized respectively. The integrated solar chimney system can realize multi-target production of electricity and freshwater, and improve the comprehensive utilization of solar energy, which provides new possibility for the site selection and small-scale construction of solar chimney power plant in the future. It has certain practical significance and is conducive to the promotion and application of solar chimney technology.
