Abstract
Solar still is a device used to get pure drinking water from brackish and contaminated water at low cost by the utilization of solar energy. Solar still can be used to provide pure drinking water for poor and rural people in the regions where high intensity of solar energy is available. This paper is the result of making an improvement in the existing single basin solar still by providing a tilting reflector and studying various parameters effecting the performance and efficiency of the distillation still. The characteristic curves were prepared to draw the inferences.
