Abstract: Solar stills absorb solar radiation convert brackish water into distilled water. In this project, a comparative analysis between the properties of distilled water from solar still and potable water from reverse osmosis process has been carried out. Two metals (Aluminium and GI sheet) and Granite stone are used as absorber plates. The water properties collected from three different absorber plates are compared with the potable water that obtained from reverse osmosis process. Based on the amount of water collected, thermal conductivity is analyzed between three absorber plate materials. An analysis on pH value, total dissolved solids, hardness dissolved oxygen between distilled water from solar still and potable water from reverse osmosis process is also evaluated.
