This is known as <a href="/wiki/Desalination" title="Desalination">desalination</a>. The ocean water is placed under a vacuum to lower its boiling point and has a heat source applied, allowing the fresh water to boil off and be condensed. The condensing of the water vapor prevents the water vapor from filling the vacuum chamber, and allows the effect to run continuously without a loss of vacuum pressure. The heat from condensation of the water vapor is removed by a heat sink, which uses the incoming ocean water as the coolant and thus preheats the feed of ocean water. Some forms of distillation do not use condensers, but instead compress the vapor mechanically with a pump. This acts as a <a href="/wiki/Heat_pump" title="Heat pump">heat pump</a>, concentrating the heat from the vapor and allowing for the heat to be returned and reused by the incoming untreated water source.
