The method according to the invention consists in that in the first stage, sea water is sucked into the evaporator (1). After filling the evaporator, the seawater intake water valve (22) closes and the pump set (12) stops. In the second stage, the evaporator shut-off valve (7) opens and the sorbent bed (2) is cooled with sea water, whereby in the evaporator (1) clean water boils and is sucked in by the sorbent bed (2) as a result of the vacuum it generates. In the sorbent bed (2), the process of adsorption of vapor takes place until the sorbent bed (2) is saturated with vapor. In the third stage, the sorbent bed (2) is cut off from the evaporator (1) and the sorbent bed (2) is heated with hot water from a heat source (5) enabling desorption of water vapor from the sorbent bed (2) towards the anode of the PEM electrolyser (3).

A non-transferred arc plasma torch with a method for the generation of plasma jet at high temperatures are disclosed. The main constituents of the torch assembly are a multiple-arc-producing cathode, a coolant distributing cell and an adjustable anode. The cathode comprises primary and secondary annular rods pointing towards the anode. The primary rod is pointing towards the center of the anode and is higher in length and diameter than the secondary ones. The secondary rods are similar in length and width. An internal coolant distribution cell was designed for internal cooling of the rods. The anode was configured to allow external adjustment of the gap between the electrodes. The electrodes were mounted into a jacketed cylindrical housing consisting an internal path within the jacket for efficient recycling of the coolant. The system is initiated by forming multiple arcs between the cathode and the anode leading to the ionization of the forming plasma gas that passed continuously through the torch. Thus, the power efficiency of the torch enhanced and the lifetime of the electrodes increased. Eventually, a thermal plasma jet exits the torch through the anode nozzle.
