This article reviews research studies on compression heat pump-assisted thermal desalination systems. The reported studies are grouped as follows: (a) compression heat pump-assisted regenerative solar still thermal desalination; (b) compression heat pump-assisted humidification–dehumidification thermal desalination; (c) compression heat pump-assisted air conditioning and thermal desalination; (d) compression heat pump-assisted vacuum thermal desalination; (e) compression heat pump-assisted membrane thermal desalination; (f) compression heat pump-assisted freezing thermal desalination; and (g) compression–absorption and compression–adsorption hybrid heat pump-assisted thermal desalination. The schematics of the new configurations are included. Moreover, the economic and environmental assessments for compression heat pump-assisted thermal desalination systems are presented. Based on the review, the current status, challenges and future research scope in the field of compression heat pump-assisted thermal desalination systems are described. This review concludes that compression heat pumps are energy-efficient heat regeneration equipment that can be integrated with thermal desalination systems to produce potable water. The details reported in this paper are useful for consultants, researchers and industrial experts working in thermal desalination.
