Solar-driven enhanced chemical adsorption and interfacial evaporation using porous graphene-based spherical composites.

Solar-energy-driven water purification is a promising technology for obtaining clean water during the current global climate crisis. Solar absorbers with high light absorption capacity and efficient energy conversion are critical components of solar-driven water evaporation and purification systems. Herein, we demonstrate that porous reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-based composite spheres facilitate efficient water evaporation and effective organic pollutant adsorption from water.
