Potable water production from inefficient solar power is still too low to meet demand. To improve the yield of conventional solar distillation, the incoming water supply is preheated by connecting a solar distillation unit with separate collector plates. In this review article, several parameters affecting the evaporation rate of effective solar distillation and various combined methods are presented. Salt water contains soluble and insoluble substances, so it is not suitable for domestic use. Currently, the distillation process is done using active and efficient solar still systems. The biggest problem with inefficient solar power is meeting the increasing demand for clean water. Water is one of the most important sources of human life on Earth. Since the use of water resources on Earth is limited, people in rural and urban areas suffer from the use of sewage, which causes waterborne diseases. Although groundwater is available in small quantities, it must be properly treated before being used indoors. The objective of this study is to perform a CFD simulation for a single-slope solar still and compare natural and modified solar stills to obtain the best results.
