Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an aerogel for solar interfacial evaporation, its preparation method and application, and particularly to a fluorine-modified graphene oxide-based composite aerogel dihedron, its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0002] With rapid societal development and a dramatic increase in population, freshwater scarcity has become one of the most severe challenges facing the world. To address this problem, researchers have turned their attention to seawater, the most abundant water resource on Earth, which accounts for approximately 97.5% of total water resources. Therefore, seawater desalination technology is considered one of the most effective methods for solving water scarcity. However, traditional seawater desalination technologies consume large amounts of fossil fuels and are costly, potentially leading to environmental problems such as the greenhouse effect and air pollution. Therefore, finding a green freshwater production technology is urgently needed. Solar-powered seawater desalination technology is of great significance in addressing freshwater scarcity and responding to the energy crisis. In recent years, interfacial solar-powered seawater desalination technology has demonstrated advantages such as environmental friendliness and low cost. By thermally localizing the heating of only a small amount of water at the evaporation interface, it achieves high evaporation efficiency.
[0003] However, for most reported interfacial solar absorbers, localized heating and rapid interfacial vapor generation can lead to salt accumulation on the evaporator surface, blocking vapor escape channels and reducing the vapor generation rate. Furthermore, oil or organic pollutants are common in seawater; when absorbers are used to purify oily seawater, oil droplets easily accumulate on the material's surface, hindering the evaporation of the aqueous phase.
