Highly efficient evaporative cooling by all-day water evaporation using hierarchically porous biomass

Abstract We developed a 3D solar steam generator with the highest evaporation rate reported so far using a carbonized luffa sponge (CLS). The luffa sponge consisted of entangled fibers with a hierarchically porous structure; macropores between fibers, micro-sized pores in the fiber-thickness directi...
