Water distillation unit combined with a submersible pump

Abstract

The invention relates to an innovative water distillation device combined with an existing submersible pump placed inside a borehole casing. This distillation kit, based on a water evaporation system powered by photovoltaic panels and a steam condensation system, can provide a significant distillate yield. The steam generated by the evaporation system inside the borehole casing reaches the condensation chamber and exchanges heat with the pumped water circulating inside the copper coil. The condensed steam is collected in the funnel fixed to the bottom of the condensation chamber. The control system maintains a relatively stable water temperature of approximately 70°C and also keeps the water level high in the floating mini-basin. The new distillation kit can be easily installed by coupling it to an existing pumping system.
