Abstract

This work is conducted in support of the American Made Challenges Solar Prize. The current scope addresses the Design portion of the overall prize competition. This team, led by the University of Connecticut, will design a solar powered, pilot scale, ceramic-based membrane distillation system that can operate on high salinity waters and propose that design for construction in the Test phase of the Prize competition.
