Quasi-Dynamic Testing of a Novel Concentrating Solar Collector According to ISO 9806:2013
Testing and certification of solar thermal collectors has been widely researched and improved over the years, however, many of the developments in the test standards has been focused primarily on generic flat plate collectors.

A hierarchical hydrogel evaporator with a thin, porous photothermal layer of fused core–shell carbon‐polymer nanospheres enables ultrafast interfacial solar evaporation with minimized heat loss and sufficient water supply. Directional advection‐dominated brine transport, coupled with Marangoni‐driven interfacial flow, drives salt away from the active ...

Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization
Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery

Numerical study of a passive solar still with separate condenser
A passive solar still with separate condenser has been modeled and its performance evaluated. The system has one basin in the evaporation chamber and two basins (middle and upper) in the condenser chamber, with a glass cover over the evaporator basin and
