Abstract

Water scarcity poses a critical global challenge, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. This paper introduces an innovative nexus approach to mitigate this issue through the integration of hydro panels in buildings, exploiting solar energy and atmospheric humidity to generate clean water. We offer a comprehensive review of the hydro panel technology's current state, exploring its potential, implementation challenges, and alignment with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through a bibliometric analysis. Our findings highlight a significant uptick in research on sustainable building technologies, positioning hydro panels at the nexus of solutions for water scarcity. Despite their promise, our analysis reveals a scarcity of focused research on hydro panels, indicating an emerging interest in leveraging smart city frameworks for environmental sustainability. The paper contributes by defining the technological trajectory and identifying gaps in existing research, emphasizing the hydro panels' potential to transform water accessibility in arid regions, especially when integrated with other sustainable technologies such as solar photovoltaic (PV) systems. This review not only underlines hydro panels as a novel solution but also paves the way for future investigations into their broader application within the nexus of sustainable urban development.

促进干旱地区的水安全:关于在建筑物中安装水电板以实现可持续发展目标的技术和文献计量学研究
水资源短缺是一个严峻的全球性挑战,尤其是在干旱和半干旱地区。本文介绍了一种创新的关联方法,通过在建筑物中集成水力板,利用太阳能和大气湿度产生清洁水,从而缓解这一问题。我们全面回顾了水力板技术的现状,通过文献计量分析探讨了其潜力、实施挑战以及与可持续发展目标(SDGs)的一致性。我们的研究结果突显了可持续建筑技术研究的显著增长,并将水力板技术定位为解决水资源短缺问题的核心技术。尽管水力电池板前景广阔,但我们的分析表明,有关水力电池板的重点研究十分稀少,这表明人们对利用智慧城市框架实现环境可持续性的兴趣日渐浓厚。本文界定了技术发展轨迹,找出了现有研究的不足,强调了水力板改变干旱地区水资源获取方式的潜力,尤其是与太阳能光伏(PV)系统等其他可持续技术相结合时。这篇综述不仅强调水力板是一种新颖的解决方案,而且还为今后在城市可持续发展关系中更广泛地应用水力板铺平了道路。
