Characterisation of the coupling of multi-effect distillation plants to concentrating solar power plants

Palenzuela, Patricia; Zaragoza, Guillermo; … - In: Energy 82 (2015) C, pp. 986-995

The aim of this work is to analyse whether the integration of Multi-Effect Distillation (MED) process into Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) plants can be more competitive, under certain conditions, than the independent freshwater and power production by connecting a Reverse Osmosis (RO) system to...
