Mechanistic Insights into Solar Evaporators for Enhanced Long‐Term Salt Resistance of Hypersaline Brines (Small Methods 11/2025)

Solar Evaporators In article number 2500317, Zhang, Li, Fu, and co-workers present a salt-resistant strategy that minimizes both mixing and friction flow losses through homogenized micro-porosity and multi-scale structures. This design reduces salt ion concentration at the evaporation interface and enables continuous operation of solar evaporators in 20 wt% hypersaline brines with an evaporation flux of 3.42 kg m−2 h−1 under 1 sun irradiance for 120 hours.
