Abstract
The availability of safe drinking water is the most fundamental requirement for human survival on Earth, according to a number of scientific research. Fossil energy prices may be prohibitively expensive in many regions where freshwater resources or water delivery infrastructure are insufficient, whereas solar energy is abundant everywhere. Furthermore, as government rules in the developed world increasingly emphasise the replacement of fossil energy with renewable, low-carbon energy, water-stressed countries are considering the use of solar-powered electricity to generate electricity. Desalination technology, when used in conjunction with present freshwater supplies, can assist in resolving both the water supply and the energy crises.
Water covers around 80 percent of the earth's surface, according to estimates:
• 97.5 percent of the solution is saline.
• Underground deposits containing 2.5 percent of the country's total reserves and frozen as ice
• Fresh water is accessible in the amount of 0.25 percent.
