Solar-driven cogeneration systems integrating photovoltaic (PV) technology with waste-heat-driven interfacial evaporation offer a sustainable route to the simultaneous production of electricity and water vapor. However, salt accumulation in …
Solar-driven interfacial evaporation is widely considered a promising low-cost and sustainable technology for desalination; yet, persistent salt fouling on photothermal layers severely limits its long-term stability under high-salinity conditions. …
