New nanocomposite improves solar evaporation for water purification

Posted On: 2022-01-21

Global drinking water scarcity is a severe problem for humans. Water purification consumes a large amount of fossil energy and generates secondary pollution. Researchers have developed an ultra-stable amorphous Ta2O5/C nanocomposite with a hollow multishelled structure for solar evaporation, which can improve the efficiency of water purification.
