Double slope solar still using lanthanum cobalt oxide nanoparticles coated wick

Abstract

In the present work synthesize of LaCoO3 nanomaterial via solgel self ignition mehod with various water flow rates of 0.050; 0.10; and 0.20 kg/min. Nanomaterial blended with black paint coated int the basin area of the the proposed double slope system The morphological and structural properties is examined by the XRD & SEM. Prepared material having structure of porous and crystalline with 86%. Those material enhanced the heat transfer distiller achieved the productivity of 5.40 and 3.85 kg/ m2 . day with and without coating respectively. They used Dunkle correlation to analyze theoretically. Porous wick materials helps to separate the water droplet.
