Solar-powered electromagnetic conditioning of saline groundwater: an exploratory assessment of ionic composition and soil-extract salinity

Saline groundwater is a difficult irrigation source in arid and off-grid areas, but a conditioning device must not be described as a desalination process unless net salt removal is demonstrated. This exploratory pilot assessment examined a photovoltaic-powered electromagnetic coi...

Modeling and experimental validation of an indirect active hybrid solar dryer for mint leaves: Coupled thermal and moisture-transfer analysis

A mathematical model was developed and experimentally validated to predict the thermal performance and drying behavior of an indirect active solar dryer (IAHSD) for mint leaves. The distinctive contribution of the proposed approach is its integration of solar-energy input, auxili...
