Scalable and high throughput photothermal water disinfection with negligible CO2 footprint utilizing nanostructured carbon coatings

Abstract Water heating and disinfection with reduced energy and CO2 footprint demands new and efficient materials for solar-thermal conversion technologies. Here, we demonstrate nanostructured porous hard-carbon florets (NCF) as effective solar absorber coating achieving excellent photon thermalizat...
