A DESALINATION UNIT FOR THE PROCUCTION OF POTABLE WATER FROM SUB-SOIL BRINE

摘要

The present invention relates to a desalination unit for production of potable water from subsoil brine comprising in combination a trapezoidal basin (1), a condenser (2), a feed tank (3), a header (4), a heat exchanger (5), a flush valve (6), a sprinkling system (7), exhaust heat pipe (8) and water collecting channel (9); wherein the said exhaust heat pipe being connected to a heat source at one end and to the said header at the another end, the said header being coupled with the said heat exchanger to provide the heat flow, the said heat exchanger being fitted at the inner portion of the said trapezoidal basin to heat the sub-soil brine, the said trapezoidal basin being covered with the said condenser to trap the vapour produced from the sub-soil brine, the said trapezoidal basin being further attached to the said feed tank to maintain the sub-soil brine level and having the said flush valve at the bottom to drain the concentrated sub-soil brine, the said condenser being attached with the said sprinkling system at the top to spray the sub-soil brine to make the condenser cool during the condensation, the condense water droplets being collected through the said water collecting channel provided inside the condenser to produce potable water.
