title = "Impact of Supercooling on Saltwater Freeze Desalination Efficiency: A Thermodynamic Analysis",
abstract = "This study explores the impact of supercooling on saltwater freeze desalination, a method garnering attention for its potential to address challenges encountered by traditional desalination technologies. The research traces the evolution of brine temperature over time, uncovering that supercooling hinders heat transfer during freezing, leading to prolonged freezing times. Additionally, higher degrees of supercooling correlate with increased ice salinity and reduced desalination efficiency. Consequently, this study underscores the significance of minimizing or avoiding supercooling in saltwater freeze desalination processes to improve overall efficiency and address existing limitations in the desalination industry.",
