Abstract
Amid global climate change and population growth, traditional water acquisition methods face challenges. Electrostatic fog harvesting technology offers a novel solution for arid regions, leveraging space charges and electric fields to convert fog into usable water. This article explores the fundamental processes, structure, and enhancement methods of electrostatic fog collectors (EFC), focusing on recent research progress. We offer a prospective perspective on the future research of electrostatic fog harvesting technology, with the aim of facilitating the transition of this technology from scientific research to practical application.
