The invention discloses an atmospheric water harvesting device based on a semiconductor chilling plate and a preparation method thereof. A first anti-gravity wicking material and a second anti-gravity wicking material are used as water transmission channel to realize a continuous atmospheric water harvesting on the same plane, the first anti-gravity wicking material and the second anti-gravity wicking material are combined with the semiconductor chilling plate, and the cold side can continuously maintain the temperature of the hygroscopic area, so that the hygroscopic salt on the surface of the anti-gravity wicking material maintains a stable moisture absorbing rate. The heat at the hot side can accurately heat the desorbing area on the surface of the material, the cooling capacity and the heat of the semiconductor chilling plate can be fully utilized, and the atmospheric water absorbing with low energy consumption is realized.

Atmospheric water harvesting device based on a semiconductor chilling plate and a preparation method thereof

Disclosed is a preparation method of a nanometer metal oxide supported carrier based on anodic oxidation, comprising: Step 1: adding electrolyte to a reaction pool, and fixing the cathode and the anode oppositely, wherein the cathode is a metal plate that is identical to the nano-metal oxide, and the anode is a carrier metal material; Step 2: stirring the electrolyte at a constant speed, wherein the revolution speed is not lower than 500 rpm; Step 3: switching power on; setting the output voltage between 10 v and 50 v; and subjecting the metal plate of the anode to anodic oxidation reaction, wherein metal oxide nanotubes/nano particles are generated on the surface; under the action of stirring, the metal oxide nanotubes/nano particles on the anode surface are dissolved and shed off into the electrolyte; under the action of the electric field force, the dissolved and shed-off nano fragments migrate towards the cathode and are adhered to the surface of the cathode material, thereby forming a nano-metal oxide film. The film preparation method according to the disclosure offers advantages such as mild condition, simple instrumentation, easy operation, and low cost; the prepared film has a good load effect such that the metal oxide can hardly be shed off.
