【 摘 要 】

The aim of this experiment was to study the effect of iron sand in a single solar still. The study was conducted on an open floor at the Faculty of Engineering, Muhammadiyah University Prof. DR HAMKA in Jakarta, Indonesia between August - September 2018 using two solar stills made of 2 mm stainless steel (420 mm x 305 mm) covered with 3 mm glass with a slope of 30 degrees. Iron sand was taken from Glagah beach, Kulonprogo in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. One solar still contained 20 mm height of iron sand with 15 mm height of water, while the other one contained 20 mm of water without iron sand and was used as a control. The experiment results showed that the efficiency of solar still containing iron sand was 1.5% higher than the control.
