Sistem Pengolahan Air Laut Menjadi Air Minum Menggunakan Tenaga Matahari
ABSTRACT: Has done research
about the system of purification of sea water into drinking water using solar
energy. Utilization of solar energy as power naturally adopts the system of
evaporation that occurs in a siklur water. Design and construction of tools
created in the shape of a pyramid so that the absorption of thermal energy from
the Sun can be maximum. Methods of work of the system is very simple, namely
the souls imprisoned in the air that the pyramid would experience an increase
in temperature significantly along with the searing Sun. The temperature of the
hot air in the space pyramid is causing sea water which is at the bottom
(floor) pyramid will evaporate and stick on the wall side of the inside of the
pyramid. With the help of gravity, the water vapour will fall in the form of
green ears water down the wall of the pyramid. The water will flow through the
channel leading into the shelter is. This water is not already contain salt and
pure water is so that it can be consumed directly. The results showed that the
pyramid with size 160 cm x 160 cm 3 mm fiberglass-wall capable of producing
fresh water as much as 2,100 mL. These results have been tested in the
laboratory with a result salinity = 0,0 at T = 29,4 °C; TDS = 11 mg/L, 22.2
ms/cm conductivity, at T = 29.3 °C, no taste and no smell.
