Abstract

In a desalination process for seawater by distillation, the surface water which has been heated by solar irradiation is evaporated at a temp. to suit the surface temp. The low pressure, required for this evaporation, is maintained by a corresponding water column. Colder water from greater depths is used for the condensation of the steam produced from the surface water. This system requires no maintenance and is free from the problem of scale deposits. No extraneous energy is required and the desalination proceeds even at night time.

In der Fig. i ist ein etwa U-förmiger Wasser-Hochbehälter 1 dargestellt. Der Behälter 1 hat einen kurzen Schenkel 2, dessen offenes Ende 3 auf dem im warmen Oberflächenwasser 4 befindlichen Küstenboden 5 steht. Im unter Wasser befindlichen Teil des Schenkels 2 ist ein Wassereinlaß 6 und ein Wasserauslaß 7 vorgesehen. Ein weiterer, längerer Schenkel 8 des Hochbehälters 1 ist an seinem Ende 9 geschlossen und ragt in die kalten Wasserschichten 10 des Meeres.In Fig. I an approximately U-shaped elevated water tank 1 is shown. The container 1 has a short leg 2, the open end 3 of which on the warm Surface water 4 located coastal soil 5 is. In underwater Part of the leg 2 is a water inlet 6 and a water outlet 7 is provided. A Another, longer leg 8 of the elevated container 1 is closed at its end 9 and protrudes into the cold water layers 10 of the sea.

In heißen geographischen Zonen hat das Oberflächenwasser 4 am Tage und in der Nacht durchschnittlich etwa + 25 0C und darüber, während die kalten Wasserschichten 10 eine Temperatur von etwa + i8 OC und weniger haben.In hot geographical areas the surface water has 4 a day and during the night an average of about + 25 0C and about it while the cold water layers 10 have a temperature of about + 18 OC and less.

Dieser Temperaturunterschied wird zur Meerwasserentsalzung herangezogen.This temperature difference is used for seawater desalination.
