Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of interfacial evaporation materials, in particular to a three-dimensional solar evaporation material and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Currently, humanity is facing urgent challenges, including freshwater scarcity, energy crisis, and environmental pollution. According to statistical data, seawater accounts for 97% of the Earth's water resources. In order to alleviate the problem of global water scarcity, seawater desalination technology is widely recognized as an effective solution. However, traditional seawater desalination methods such as thermal distillation and reverse osmosis consume a large amount of energy and produce carbon dioxide, further exacerbating the energy crisis and environmental pollution. In order to address these problems, an interfacial solar-driven seawater desalination system was proposed in 2014, which has attracted widespread attention due to its high evaporation rate and environmental friendliness. The interfacial solar-driven seawater desalination system is usually composed of a photothermal material, a thermal insulation layer, and a water transport device. The role of the photothermal material is to absorb sunlight and convert it into heat energy to promote water evaporation. The role of the thermal insulation layer is to limit the dispersion of heat energy from the photothermal material to the large amount of water in the water vapor interface. The water transport device is used to transport water to the surface of the photothermal material for the evaporation process. Photothermal materials are mainly divided into four categories: plasmonic, semiconductor, carbon material, and polymer. These materials have their own unique characteristics and advantages, and play an important role in the interfacial solar-driven seawater desalination system. As a black polymer, polypyrrole has excellent sunlight absorption capacity, environmental friendliness, easy loading on the surface of other materials, and low price, so it is often used to prepare photothermal conversion materials.

[0003] Currently, solar-driven interfacial water evaporation faces three problems: (1) high evaporation efficiency; (2) achieving self-cleaning and constant evaporation efficiency during seawater desalination; (3) low price to meet the needs of practical applications. Therefore, designing a solar evaporator that can overcome these three problems is still a great challenge.

[0004] In recent years, in order to improve the evaporation rate, researchers have proposed a variety of innovative design schemes. Compared with two-dimensional evaporation surfaces that rely on solar energy, three-dimensional evaporators can capture the energy of the surrounding environment, thereby promoting the evaporation process and significantly improving the evaporation efficiency. Therefore, using three-dimensional evaporator design to achieve high-efficiency evaporation is considered an effective approach. In the field of seawater desalination, three-dimensional interfacial solar evaporation materials have shown great potential, thanks to their excellent evaporation efficiency. However, in the process of water and salt separation based on interfacial photothermal evaporation, there is a serious problem of salt crystallization and scale accumulation, which leads to the saturation of salt concentration. This phenomenon will hinder the absorption of sunlight and limit the sufficient supply of water, thereby causing the photothermal conversion efficiency to rapidly decrease, and even the device to fail.

[0005] Based on the defects of the three-dimensional interface solar evaporation material at present, it is necessary to improve it. SUMMARY

[0073] Performance test

[0074] Figure 1 The scanning electron microscope images of the waste mop sponge used in Example 1 and the three-dimensional solar evaporation material finally prepared; Figure 1 (a) and (b) are scanning electron microscope images of the sponge used at different magnifications, and (c) and (d) are scanning electron microscope images of the polypyrrole-waste mop sponge (i.e. the three-dimensional solar evaporation material finally prepared) at different magnifications.

[0075] Figure 1 (a, b) are SEM images of the waste sponge, from Figure 1 As can be seen in (a), the sponge has a low tortuosity pore (i.e. vertical channel) structure with pore diameters between 10-500 microns (i.e. vertical channel diameters between 10-500 microns), which is beneficial for salt self-cleaning during the process of seawater desalination, ensuring stable seawater desalination performance. Figure 1 As can be seen in (b), the surface of the waste sponge is free of any material loading. Figure 1 (c) is an SEM image of the waste sponge loaded with polypyrrole. Figure 1 (c) shows that the waste sponge loaded with polypyrrole has a similar low tortuosity pore as Figure 1 (a). Figure 1 The surface of the sponge in (c) is rougher than Figure 1 (a), due to the loading of polypyrrole on the surface of the sponge. Figure 1 In (d), polypyrrole loading on the surface of the waste sponge can be more directly observed.

[0076] Further, the light absorption performance results of the polypyrrole-waste sponge (i.e. the three-dimensional solar evaporation material finally prepared) prepared in Example 1 and the waste sponge used in Example 1 are shown in Figure 2 .

[0077] In order to preliminarily evaluate the light-heat conversion ability of the material, by measuring the ultraviolet-visible-near infrared spectrum of the waste sponge and the polypyrrole-waste sponge (i.e. the left side of Figure 2 ), it is found that the light-heat conversion ability of the waste sponge loaded with polypyrrole is increased from 82.27% to 98.92% (i.e. the right side of Figure 2 ), close to 100%. The improvement of the light absorption performance of the material is beneficial to enhance the evaporation efficiency of the material.

[0078] The solar evaporator is assembled according to the method in Example 1, and the height of the three-dimensional solar evaporation material (i.e. the polypyrrole-waste sponge prepared in Example 1) above the foam substrate is 0 cm, 3 cm, 6 cm, respectively. Similarly, the solar evaporator assembled with the waste sponge is used as a comparison, and the height of the waste sponge above the foam substrate is 0 cm, 3 cm, 6 cm, respectively. The evaporation rate of the underground water of the polypyrrole-waste sponge and the waste sponge at different exposure heights is tested, and the results are shown in Figure 3 .

[0079] Figure 3The groundwater quality change curve of the poly-pyrrole-waste mop sponge with different exposure heights, the waste mop sponge under 1 sun intensity, was found to increase with the increase of the exposure height of the poly-pyrrole-waste mop sponge. When the exposure height was 6 cm, the evaporation efficiency of the groundwater reached 3.67 kg / m2 / h.

[0080] Figure 4 The evaporation rate of the solar evaporator in Example 1 for desalination of 20wt% salt water; Figure 4 The preparation method of 20wt% salt water in Example 1 was to dissolve NaCl (76.34 g), KCl (2.06 g), MgCl2 (18.21 g) and CaCl2 (3.31 g) in 500 ml of deionized water;

[0081] The specific test method of the evaporation rate was to place the solar evaporator in Example 1 in the salt water, and the solar evaporator absorbed heat to cause the salt water to evaporate, and the evaporation rate was tested, and the calculation formula was: v = dm / (S·dt);

[0082] Wherein, v is the evaporation rate, m is the change of the mass of the salt water before and after evaporation, S is the light area at the top of the three-dimensional solar evaporation material, and t is the illumination time.

[0083] Figure 4 The change of the mass of the salt water with the illumination time was shown, and specifically, Figure 4 In (a) and (b), the change of the mass of the salt water with the illumination time on the first day and the seventh day, respectively.

[0084] From Figure 4 It can be seen from the above that the evaporation rate of the solar evaporator in Example 1 for desalination of 20wt% salt water can reach 3.00 kg / m2 / h, and after seven days of desalination experiment, it was found that the material had good stability.

Figure 7 In the above, Before desalination represents the ion concentration of the salt water before desalination, and After desalination represents the ion concentration of the evaporated water after desalination.

[0088] After 1 hour of illumination, water droplets were attached to the top of the evaporator, and the ion concentration of the desalinated seawater was detected by ICP-MS, and it was found that the ion concentration of the desalinated brine met the standard of the World Health Organization (WHO).
