Zusammenfassung:	Desalination apparatus (10) is provided for removing impurities from an impure liquid, and comprises a vacuum chamber (14) including a vaporization compartment (70) and a condensation compartment (72), and a solar heater (12) for raising the temperature of the impure liquid. The condensation compartment (72) includes a cooling element (78) for causing condensation of vapour and the solar heater (12) includes a solar-energy collector (26) for absorbing solar radiation and a heat exchanger (28) for transferring heat to the impure liquid. The solar-energy collector (26) and the heat exchanger (28) are fluidly interconnected in a heating circuit containing a heating fluid which includes a suspension of nanoparticles in a liquid. A system and method are also provided. L'invention concerne un appareil de dessalement (10) destiné à éliminer les impuretés d'un liquide impure. Cet appareil comprend une chambre à vide (14) pourvue d'un compartiment de vaporisation (70) et d'un compartiment de condensation (72), ainsi qu'un convertisseur héliothermique (12) destiné à élever la température du liquide impure. Le compartiment de condensation (72) comprend un élément de refroidissement (78) destiné à entraîner la condensation de vapeur et le convertisseur héliothermique (12) comprend un capteur d'énergie solaire (26) destiné à absorber le rayonnement solaire et un échangeur de chaleur (28) destiné à transférer la chaleur vers le liquide impure. Le capteur (26) et l'échangeur de chaleur (28) sont en communication de fluide dans un circuit de chauffage contenant un fluide de chauffage qui contient une suspension de nanoparticules dans un liquide. L'invention concerne également un système et un procédé associés.
