Abstract:Nowadays, freshwater shortage, energy crisis and environmental pollution are the three major threats to human beings. Herein, we develop a photothermal material based on bagasse for solar steam generation to relieve freshwater crisis and mitigate environmental pollution caused by bio-waste. The mainly functional part of the solar driven steam generator in this paper is bagasse-based photothermal aerogel (B-PTA), which composes of carbonized bagasse (CB) and bagasse-derived cellulose fiber (BDCF). The B-PTA wit… Show more
