The evaporation of sea/wastewater and following condensing will be the very best technology but with the highest costs for heating up. HTR-power stations are the utmost technology to solve the cost factor due to producing high temperature heat together with electric power for all secondary processes by minimizing costs for every secondary production line. The additional use of sun power may enlarge the profitability of HTR-power plants with combined generation of electricity and hydrogen and/or drinking water.展开更多
