Overview: Solar distillation of seawater can be economical on a large scale, combining the advantages of free solar energy with cost effective design. This paper discusses the designs of a large scale, solar unit topped by covers at two levels, the top resists the wind, creating a quiet space for more traditional covers which trap the solar energy and condense water vapor. The solar energy would be converted to heat beneath the brine to distill water vapor condensed on the cover.
