- Abstract
Sustainable water management is essential for airports. Due to the location near the ocean, some airports can get freshwater sources to meet the needs of the airport from the desalination process. One of the desalination technology is solar desalination. Solar energy radiation is produced from nuclear fusion that occurs in sunlight. This energy is the engine that powers our environment, turning it into solar energy that reaches the Earth’s surface 10,000 times more than the energy consumed by all of humanity today. Radiation is the energy transfer by electromagnetic waves generated directly from a source outward in all directions. These waves do not require a material medium to propagate, and they can travel through interplanetary space and reach Earth from the Sun. This study aims to determine the calorific value of solar energy in a solarpowered seawater distillation device with the help of a loop lens and to determine the amount of freshwater produced from the distillation process. The method used is experimental. The results of this study are the highest calorific value of 2251.20 J found at 12.30 WIB. This is due to the relatively large TP2-TP1 delta value of 4.2 °C due to the addition of a convex lens to the distillation apparatus. The amount of fresh water produced from the distillation process is 1,310 ml. With these results, it is hoped that the availability of clean water from desalination can support the airport’s needs.
