Wastewater disinfection applying solar energy
(Corresponding) ZKERI E., Vourdoubas I., Katsivela E.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Solar Water Disinfection Process (SODIS) is a simple technology using solar UV-A radiation (wavelength 320-400 nm) and elevated water temperature to inactivate pathogens. In the present survey, the effect of solar radiation on the disinfection of domestic secondary treated wastewater from the...Read more

Utilization of paraffin wax as phase change material for solar thermal energy storage
(Corresponding) Shalaby S., Kabeel A., Fleafl A.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
In this work, a thermal energy storage system based paraffin wax as phase change material (PCM) was designed, constructed and tested when it was integrated with a solar water heater (SWH). For the purpose of comparison, the SWH was also tested when water was used as a storage medium. The system was...Read more
