Scalable, high-efficiency porous monolithic polymer foam for solar-driven interfacial water evaporation and lithium extraction
Freshwater scarcity remains a critical global challenge, prompting the development of sustainable solutions like solar-driven interfacial water evaporation technology. Here, we present a scalable fabrication method for porous monolithic polymer evaporators through olefin metathesis polymerization coupled with NaCl templating. The large-area evaporator (800 × 600 mm²) incorporates amine-capped aniline trimer (ACAT) as a photothermal component wit…
Sunlight and a sponge: A simple way to turn seawater into drinking water
Most of the water on Earth is salty ocean water—not suitable for drinking. While desalination plants can remove the salt and make seawater drinkable, they use a lot of energy and expensive equipment. But now, scientists have developed a lightweight, sponge-like material that uses only sunlight to turn seawater into clean, drinkable water. This new […] The post Sunlight and a sponge: A simple way to turn seawater into drinking water appeared firs…
Enter the absorbing world of sponges - Wellcome Sanger Institute Blog
Enter the absorbing world of sponges, the intricate animals that have evolved to inhabit all corners of our Earth’s waterways and oceans. Thanks to a worldwide collaboration of sponge scientists through the Aquatic Symbiosis Genomics project, which is led by the Wellcome Sanger Institute, more than 50 published high-quality sponge genomes and counting are now freely accessible to the research community.
Highly interconnected sponge with optimized water absorption and thermal conductivity for efficient solar desalination
Solar steam generation (SSG) has been recognized as one of the most sustainable approaches for seawater desalination. However, its practical implement…
The researchers published their research results in the journal ACS Energy Letters. They developed a sponge structure material with a long-chain micro-airbag structure, which combined with sunlight exposure and a simple plastic cover successfully achieved the conversion of salt water resources into fresh water.
