TL;DR: A systematic and conceptual decision-making framework for site suitability and optimal design of HRESs is developed with an application on a regional scale in Kenya, Sub-Saharan Africa and results indicate that the development of solar/wind/diesel/battery HRES is the best sustainable solution to supply the studied region as compared to other feasible alternatives.

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of a modified double slope still (MDSSS) was evaluated compared to conventional single slope one (CSS), and the modifications depended on different additives, namely: copper chips, copper oxide nanoparticles/fluid, and paraffin wax as phase change material (PCM).

TL;DR: In this article, three alternative combinations were applied in the still basin, which consisted of nanoparticles/fluid (carbon black/water), heat localization (wick), and sensible storage (gravel) materials.

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental investigation is carried out to assess solar still performance with a porous absorber made from activated carbon tubes (RACT) with four various arrangements based on energy, exergy, economic, environmental, exergoeconomic (EXC), enviroeconomic (ENC), exergonenvironmental (EXE), and exero-enviro economic (EEC) points of view.

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of using machine learning to predict the solar still performance and analyze the importance of different factors of systems and materials were discussed, and several important points for challenges of solar evaporation investigations were also discussed.
