Performance evaluation of a solar and vacuum assisted multi-stage humidification-dehumidification desalination system

Zohreh Rahimi-Ahar et al.

Summary: This study compared the freshwater productivity of a three-stage vacuum humidification-dehumidification (VHDH) system to a single-stage VHDH system, confirming the former's superiority in terms of productivity. The system performance was further improved through optimization, with multi-stage humidification significantly enhancing humidity ratio and reducing energy consumption. The optimal freshwater productivity was achieved when multi-stage vacuum humidification was used in all stages, with a cost of $0.002 per liter.
