Abstract

Solar-driven interfacial vapor generation (SIVG) is increasingly used for fresh water production, having the advantages of low energy consumption, eco-friendliness, and high efficiency. Carbon-based photothermal materials (CPTMs) can introduce temperature and salinity gradients in the SIVG process because of their outstanding photothermal conversion properties, which have given SIVG great potential for both steam and power generation. Various kinds of CPTMs for clean water and electricity generation are discussed in this review. The basic principles and key performance indices of SIVG are first described and the photothermal and SIVG performance of various CPTMs including graphene oxides, carbon nanotubes, carbon dots and carbonized biomass are then summarized. Finally, current research concerning water/electricity cogeneration and ways to deal with the problems encountered are presented, to provide some guidelines for the use of multifunctional CPTMs for simultaneous steam and electricity generation.

同时产生水蒸气和电能的碳基光热材料

太阳能驱动界面蒸汽发生技术（SIVG）具有能耗低、生态友好和效率高等优点，正越来越多地用于淡水生产。碳基光热材料（CPTMs）因其出色的光热转换特性，可在 SIVG 过程中引入温度和盐度梯度，这使得 SIVG 在蒸汽和发电方面具有巨大潜力。本综述讨论了各种用于清洁水和发电的 CPTM。首先介绍了 SIVG 的基本原理和关键性能指标，然后总结了各种 CPTM（包括石墨烯氧化物、碳纳米管、碳点和碳化生物质）的光热和 SIVG 性能。最后，介绍了目前有关水/电热电联产的研究以及解决所遇到问题的方法，为使用多功能 CPTM 同时产生蒸汽和电力提供了一些指导。

期刊介绍： New Carbon Materials is a scholarly journal that publishes original research papers focusing on the physics, chemistry, and technology of organic substances that serve as precursors for creating carbonaceous solids with aromatic or tetrahedral bonding. The scope of materials covered by the journal extends from diamond and graphite to a variety of forms including chars, semicokes, mesophase substances, carbons, carbon fibers, carbynes, fullerenes, and carbon nanotubes. The journal's objective is to showcase the latest research findings and advancements in the areas of formation, structure, properties, behaviors, and technological applications of carbon materials. Additionally, the journal includes papers on the secondary production of new carbon and composite materials, such as carbon-carbon composites, derived from the aforementioned carbons. Research papers on organic substances will be considered for publication only if they have a direct relevance to the resulting carbon materials.
