Multiple-effect humidification
Water desalination
Methods

Multiple-effect humidification (MEH) is a method used for thermal desalination of sea water. It uses multiple evaporation-condensation cycles at separate temperature levels to minimize the total energy consumption[disambiguation needed ] of solar humidification processes.
