Abstrakt: People around the world are facing water scarcity, and the demand for freshwater is continuously increasing. The purification of water is the only way to satisfy the need for water. Purification can be done in many ways by purifying seawater or by storing rainwater and letting it to the ground. Different types of solar still are there, which are used to increase the output of water produced. Among others, inclined solar still (ISS) is an outstanding solution as it has a wide exterior area of water, having less depth of water to complement the regular potable water production, even the effectiveness of the inclined solar still. A lot of research had been done by increasing the surface area of water. The day to day collection of water from the ISS was found to be 1-8 kg m - 2 . In this review, an analysis was made on the current status of different ISS designs to make advance modifications and research to improve the productivity of the ISS to satisfy the increasing demand for potable water. From this investigation, it is identified that active ISS and hybrid ISS are the most effective as compared to other ISS techniques.
