Synopsis

An integrated solar distillation with a parabolic collector (SDSPC) has fabricated for drinking water and modified purification of distilled water. The system consists of a parabolic solar collector and double slope solar still at the focal point and condensing the generating evaporated water. Distillate water productivity of the SDSPC was measured along with different parameters TDS, pH and yield of distilled water, black absorber box wall temperature and contaminated water yield under the climate conditions MMMUT, Gorakhpur during January. The maximum productivity of yield distilled water 660 mL within seven hours a day was measured with absorber wall temperature 78.2°C. The overall yield of distilled water varied from 53 ml/hr to 60 ml/hr having a peak value of 135 ml/h. The quality of contaminated water samples has been examined at 2:00 PM, TDS and pH were 630 PPM and 6.14 respectively and the results are found with guidelines for drinking water quality.
