N2  - Desalination is define as a process that removes minerals from saline water (commonly known as salt water). In other words, it use to remove salts and minerals from target substances. As for that, a consumable or suitable water for human consumption was produce. Other than that, seawater desalination is becoming an attractive source of drinking water in coastal states as the costs for desalination declines. The objective of this thesis are to develop a desalination device with suitable sensor, building a SMART Salt Water Desalination Device Interface for real time data analysis and analysing the effectiveness of the desalination process of the device. Most of the hardware and software were being develop from scratch. In this study, thermal technology was use in order to do the desalination process. The process use heat in order to heat up the sea water inside a boiler until its boil and forming steam. The steam was then undergoes condensation process to change state of the fluid from gas to liquid at the cooling container. A GUI for the interface was made to enable the real time data analysis of the desalination device. Arduino microcontroller was used in this device in order to develop an automatic device. For developing the real time data analysis, C# windows form application was used in Visual Studio in order to create a GUI. Moreover, from the collection of data obtain, series of analysis were made. pH level, water input and output, rate of desalination and percentage of effectiveness of desalination process were the result of data analysis been made. From the overall data analysis of the desalination process of the SMART Salt Water Desalination Device the highest efficiency of the device can be obtain was 21.55%. Nevertheless, series of improvement were needed in developing this device in order to increase its effectiveness of desalination process
