Solar desalination as a means to provide Indian villages with drinking water

The possibilities of adopting desalination — particularly solar desalination — to supply drinking water to villages in arid zones are examined. The costs of water obtained by desalination and water transported by pipelines are compared. Solar-cell-operated electrodialysis seems to be more advantageo...

Zusammenfassung:	The possibilities of adopting desalination — particularly solar desalination — to supply drinking water to villages in arid zones are examined. The costs of water obtained by desalination and water transported by pipelines are compared. Solar-cell-operated electrodialysis seems to be more advantageous for desalting brackish water than conventional solar stills.
