Abstract

) under one sun solar intensity. Evaporation performance under different salinities (3.5-15 wt%) confirmed the sustainability of the evaporator and reduced variability in evaporation rates, and effective desalination of seawater (salinity reduction: 99.98%) is demonstrated. This work provides a scalable, multifunctional platform for sustainable clean water generation.
