A photothermal-photocatalytic layered aerogel for harvesting water and hydrogen from seawater
Abstract
Photocatalytic hydrogen production from seawater holds potential to decrease the use of fresh or pre-treated water. However, direct photocatalytic splitting of seawater currently encounters challenges such as corrosion of catalyst and unsatisfied stability. To address these issues, we have integrated seawater desalination with photocatalytic water vapor splitting for in-situ hydrogen production, while also obtaining freshwater. This approach avoids direct contact between photocatalytic materials and seawater solution, effectively mitigating corrosion and enhancing hydrogen production performance. Based on this design, we constructed a layered structure of photothermal-photocatalytic aerogel material via in-situ synthesis method and designed corresponding device for freshwater-hydrogen coproduction, demonstrating notable hydrogen production rate of 17.94 mmol m-2 h-1 with solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of 0.12 ± 0.02 % and freshwater production rate of 0.92 kg m-2 h-1. This work demonstrates significant practical value in photothermal-photocatalysis field, potentially addressing the problem of energy and water scarcity in off-grid region.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
