dc.description.abstractWe describe the design of a large-scale thermal desalination demonstrator unit for use in arid locations with a medium-to-high DNI. Most of thermal energy is provided by a conventional parabolic trough field, in the case of the demonstrator this being 4MWt. The desalination sub-system comprises a 3-effect MED, the first stage of which is a large 20 m diameter glass and steel-structured geodesic and transparent dome. The thermal energy is supplemented by direct sunlight transmitted through the dome and by an arc of small heliostats which focus yet more sunlight onto the dome itself. The prototype is under construction at Neom in KSA.en_UK
