A co-generation system producing electricity and freshwater by a solar field driven supercritical organic Rankine cycle (SORC) coupled with a desalination unit is proposed. The proposed system can use parabolic trough solar collectors (among other options) to produce 700 kW thermal energy with temper

A comparison of many organic working fluids was made. Emphasis was given to the efficiency of the thermodynamic cycle using each working fluid, as well as its environmental impact. The thermodynamic cycle consists of two stages: high temperature and low temperature. The maximum temperature of the fi

Photovoltaic powered brackish water reverse osmosis (PV-BWRO) desalination systems have been proved to be a technically and economically mature choice for water supply in isolated communities and islands suffering from lack or poor water quality. However, photovoltaic seawater reverse osmosis (PV-SW

This paper presents the technical characteristics as well as an economic comparison of two autonomous desalination systems. The first system concerns the laboratory experimental results of a direct coupled PV-SWRO desalination system without batteries equipped with a hydraulic energy recovery device
