Abstract
Adsorbent-assisted air water harvesting (AWH) may help alleviate the current global freshwater scarcity crisis. However, the weak sorption capacity of various adsorbents and the high energy required to release water are two long-standing problems. Herein, we propose a class of green and clean adsorbent, TpPa-1@LiCl composite, whose sorption capacity is greatly improved to 0.37 and 0.80 g g−1 under 30% and 90% relative humidity (RH), respectively, and which has excellent stability, showing only a slight decrease (0.79%) after 10 sorption–desorption cycles (1400 min). This TpPa-1@LiCl composite can reach equilibrium within 2 h and undergo complete desorption in 30 min under air mass 1.5 G irradiation. A corresponding solar-driven AWH device can complete up to 4 sorption–desorption cycles per day, with each cycle capable of collecting 0.34 g g−1 water without additional energy input, which implies TpPa-1@LiCl composite has the potential for achieving sorption-assisted AWH with high efficiency and rapid cycling.
吸附剂辅助空气水收集(AWH)可能有助于缓解当前全球淡水短缺危机。然而,各种吸附剂的吸附能力弱和释放水所需的能量高是两个长期存在的问题。本文提出了一种绿色清洁的吸附剂TpPa-1@LiCl复合吸附剂,在30%和90%相对湿度(RH)下,其吸附量分别大大提高到0.37和0.80 g g−1,并且具有优异的稳定性,在10次吸脱附循环(1400 min)后仅略有下降(0.79%)。该TpPa-1@LiCl复合材料在1.5 G空气质量照射下,2 h内达到平衡,30 min内完全脱附。相应的太阳能驱动的AWH设备每天可以完成多达4个吸附-解吸循环,每个循环能够收集0.34 g g−1的水,而无需额外的能量输入,这意味着TpPa-1@LiCl复合材料具有实现吸附辅助AWH的潜力,具有高效率和快速循环。
