A transportable device for producing fresh water by desalting salt water with the aid of solar energy. The device comprises an evaporation chamber (80) which consists of an enclosure having at least one part (79) which is pervious to solar radiation, a salt-water channel (1) which is located inwardly of the enclosure (80), and the salt water contained therein is directly and / or indirectly irradiated with solar radiation through the pervious part (79), such as to vapourise the salt water. The device also comprises a fresh water collecting chute (82). The salt-water channel (1) is positioned horizontally in spaced relationship with the bottom (59) of the enclosure (80) and rests, through the agency of spacer elements (74-77), on a solar energy absorber (63, 69) which forms the bottom of the enclosure. The absorber includes liquid- conducting ducts (70-73) operative in cooling vapour and condensing vapour onto the absorber, this condensate being collected in the fresh-water chute (82). The salt-water channel (1) will preferably have the form of a flat, flexible strip which is divided into a bottom part and four side panels (2 - 5), these panels being intended to be raised from the bottom part, when using the device, and secured together in a liquid-tight fashion. |
