2002年至2006年，一个名为AQUASOL的联合研发项目在Plataforma Solar de Almería（西班牙）的设施中进行。该项目的主要目标是开发基于多效蒸馏工艺的混合太阳能天然气海水淡化系统，同时满足低成本、高效率和零排放的要求。最终的 AQUASOL 发电厂在 Plataforma Solar de Almería 实施，用于在真实气象条件下进行评估，由以下部分组成：(i) 一个 14 单元前馈垂直堆叠 MED 单元，(ii) 一个 500m2 固定 CPC（复合抛物面聚光器）太阳能集热场，(iii) 一个 24 m3 水蓄热系统，(iv) 新型双效吸收 (LiBr-H2O) 热能先进原型泵，(v) 烟管燃气锅炉，保证 24 小时运行 本文展示了该项目测试期间获得的第一个实验结果。评估了蒸馏装置在不同运行模式下达到的性能比，以及与组成 AQUASOL 海水淡化系统的子系统运行相关的问题。
From 2002 to 2006, a combined R&D project named AQUASOL has been carried out at the facilities of the Plataforma Solar de Almería (Spain). Main objective of this project has been the development of a hybrid solargas desalination system based on multi-effect distillation process that meets at the same time the requirements of low-cost, high efficiency and zero discharge. The final AQUASOL plant, implemented at the Plataforma Solar de Almería for its evaluation under real meteorological conditions, is composed of: (i) a 14-cell forward-feed vertically-stacked MED unit, (ii) a 500m2 stationary CPC (compound parabolic concentrator) solar collector field, (iii) a 24 m3 thermal storage system based on water, (iv) a new advanced prototype of double-effect absorption (LiBr-H2O) heat pump, (v) a smoketube gas boiler to guarantee 24-h operation This paper shows the first experimental results obtained during the test campaign of the project. The performance ratio reached by the distillation plant in different operational modes is evaluated, as well as the issues related with the operation of the subsystems that compose the AQUASOL desalination system.
