Resumen (en)
Solar stills represent an alternative for seawater desalination; however, their low production capacity poses significant limitations for broader applications. To address this, solar stills are increasingly integrated with Thermosolar systems to enhance performance and boost production capacity. This study undertakes a bibliometric analysis to evaluate the evolution of research on active solar stills integrated with Thermosolar systems over the period 2004-2024 Using data from the Scopus database and VOSviewer software, this analysis explores key trends in publication output, co-occurrence of terms, leading authors, countries, continents, and universities. The findings highlight the most frequently studied types of active solar stills and their relationship with global solar radiation patterns. Additionally, the study assesses the contributions of various continents to this research domain, providing insights into the global landscape and identifying areas for future development.
Resumen (es)
Los destiladores solares representan una alternativa para la desalinización de agua de mar; sin embargo, su baja capacidad de producción plantea limitaciones significativas para aplicaciones más amplias. Para abordar esto, los destiladores solares se integran cada vez más con los sistemas termosolares para mejorar el rendimiento y aumentar la capacidad de producción. Este estudio realiza un análisis bibliométrico para evaluar la evolución de la investigación sobre destiladores solares activos integrados con sistemas termosolares durante el período 2004-2024. Utilizando datos de la base de datos Scopus y el software VOSviewer, este análisis explora las tendencias clave en la producción de publicaciones, la coocurrencia de términos, los autores principales, los países, los continentes y las universidades. Los hallazgos destacan los tipos de destiladores solares activos estudiados con más frecuencia y su relación con los patrones de radiación solar global. Además, el estudio evalúa las contribuciones de varios continentes a este dominio de investigación, brindando información sobre el panorama global e identificando áreas para el desarrollo futuro.
