A Comparison between Different Types of Solar Desalination by Concentrated Mirrors

The objective of this study is to evaluate the several pilot models for the solar desalination with concentrated mirrors through a technical and financial comparison to choose the suitable model for commercial application for such system. The study concluded the following results, • For technical comparison, the pilot no, 4 was ranked the first and followed by pilots no. 2, 1 and finally no.3. • And for financial comparison, the pilot no.3 ranked the first while pilot no, 4 ranked the second followed by 2 & 1as the last. It is worth noting that the finically difference between all plants is very small about 2%
