| Summary, etc. |
Water scarcity, driven by rapid population growth, places significant strain on limited water<br/>resources, leading to water quality deterioration and a crisis in access to safe drinking<br/>water, particularly in the Philippines. Approximately 9 million Filipinos depend on<br/>inadequate, unsafe, and unsustainable water sources, which impacts both rural and urban<br/>areas. This study centered on the design, fabrication, assembly, evaluation, and testing of<br/>a Small-scale solar-powered desalination system that aims to produce a potable water from<br/>seawater sourced collected from Manila Bay Walk. The prototype uses a 200W<br/>photovoltaic solar panel to generate electricity, which powers a 500W band heating<br/>element wrapped around a 304 stainless steel mini boiler and a heat exchanger. Laboratory<br/>tests were conducted to assess the water’s quality, including pH, TDS, salinity, total<br/>coliform, thermotolerant (fecal) coliform, and heterotrophic plate count. The results<br/>showed that the desalinated water had a pH of 8.31, which falls within the safe range of<br/>6.5–8.5. However, the total dissolved solids (TDS) level was 5140 mg/L, exceeding the<br/>acceptable standard of <600 mg/L. The salinity was measured at 3.72 PPT, 15% of salt<br/>after desalination which is considered acceptable. Microbial contamination, including high<br/>levels of total coliform, thermotolerant coliform, and heterotrophic plate count, rendered<br/>the water unsuitable for consumption. Despite these issues, the system produced 200 mL<br/>of fresh water per hour, demonstrating its feasibility for localized use. The system was<br/>evaluated with a grand mean of 4.34, classified as excellent, confirming its potential for<br/>further improvement.<br/>Keywords: small-scale desalination, solar-powered, water scarcity, water quality,<br/>microbial testing |
