A New Solar Technology Technique for Wastewater and Seawater Treatment

With the increasing water shortage in different parts of South-East Asia, like Singapore, and some parts of Indonesia and recently in Selangor, the need arises for more advanced technologies to treat wastewater to a level of purity where is can be used as potable. In this paper some improvements to...
