From: Adsorption-responsive bionic photothermal ion pump for reversible seawater lithium extraction
a Predicted daily water production rate (DWPR) and Li+ extraction capacity (Qe) of APIP around the world. b Comparison of different technologies for Li+ extraction from salt lake/seawater: molar ratio of Na+ and Li+ in the feed solution (M(Na+/Li+)) and energy consumption (EC). Note that the corresponding data can be found in Supplementary Table 1. c Pathway for seawater resource utilization based on interfacial evaporation technology.
