Abstract

nThis review article delves into the comprehensive examination of hybrid solar water heating and distillation systems, underscoring their pivotal role in addressing global water and energy challenges. With the increasing scarcity of clean water and the growing demand for sustainable energy solutions, these hybrid systems offer a promising dual-purpose approach. The article synthesizes the latest advancements in technology, design methodologies, and performance evaluation metrics, providing a holistic view of the current state and future prospects of these systems. The development of hybrid solar water heating and distillation systems involves the integration of solar thermal collectors with various distillation techniques to simultaneously harness solar energy for heating water and purifying it. This dual-functionality not only improves overall system efficiency but also maximizes the utilization of available solar energy. The review highlights innovative design strategies that enhance the performance and reliability of these systems, such as advanced material selection, optimized configuration, and smart control mechanisms. Performance metrics are crucial for evaluating the effectiveness of hybrid systems. This article reviews key parameters including thermal efficiency, distillation rate, and overall energy conversion efficiency. It also discusses various theoretical and computational models used to predict system performance, alongside experimental setups that validate these models. Comparative analyses between hybrid systems and standalone solar water heaters or distillation units are presented to showcase the advantages and potential trade-offs of hybrid integration. Economic and environmental analyses are integral components of this review. The article provides a detailed cost-benefit analysis, covering initial investment, operational costs, and payback periods. It also assesses the environmental impact of hybrid systems, emphasizing their contribution to reducing carbon footprints and conserving water resources
