Humanity faces a major problem: the lack of drinking water around the world that can affect the human future. Solar distillation systems are a possible solution to this problem as solar energy is currently used in the production of clean water for laboratory applications, drinking, and for agricultural purposes, depending on the size of the system. In this study, some improvements are being made to increase the productivity of the solar distillation. Two types of solar distillers were constructed and tested. The first is a simple traditional solar tub, which can produce 3L/ m2 D of distilled water in summer. Type II is characterized by its design in a graduated form and this design increases the surface area exposed to the sun, causing an increase of 22% of distilled water production.
