produce potable water, [2] to substitute the current technologies. The available technologies require large centralized infrastructure and high energy consumption limiting their applicability especially in the offshore areas, small villages, or remote off-grid regions. [3] A valuable alternative for an effective, low-cost, and easy to implement technology for potable water production has been recently demonstrated to be solar steam generation. [4] In this process, solar energy is exploited to generate steam from the water through a photothermal process, by using diverse porous materials based on plasmonic, [5] semiconductors, [6] and carbon-based systems, [7][8][9] which are able to absorb solar light and efficiently transform it into heat. [5,7] Carbon-based materials such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, or nanofibers are widely used as components of porous materials for a solar steam generation because of their broad light absorption, good stability, and large surface area. [10,11] Nevertheless, these materials are typically expensive, their fabrication involves noxious chemicals (e.g., the liquid-phase exfoliation process), and their production and handling present diverse difficulties. [10,11] Alternatively, biobased, [9,[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] and food-waste [16,[20][21][22] carbonized materials have been successfully prepared following straightforward methods, resulting in cost-effective materials with favorable properties for an ideal photothermal system. In fact, they possess an outstanding ability of light absorption, highly porous structure and hydrophilicity, and good photothermal properties, all essential for efficient solar-driven steam production. [12,13] Therefore, due to their inherent properties, biowaste materials have a huge potential to be successfully used in this application and their further processing and exploration are continuously growing. [23] In fact, apart from their favorable properties, carbonized biobased materials are economical and are available in great abundance, making this approach an optimal sustainable solution to counter the forthcoming water shortage problem.Animal bone is categorized among the most abundant biowaste materials. According to a recent report, the global meat industry produces 130 billion kg of animal bone per annum with over 10% produced in the European Union. [24] The animal bone's composition is a valuable source for the development of diverse materials for advanced applications. Specifically, bone is Interfacial solar steam generation is an emerging strategy to improve the global freshwater supply. Herein, for the first time, a plausible alternative based on bone waste is presented for low-cost solar steam generation and seawater desalination. This is accomplished via the exploration of the appropriate carbonization conditions for the successful bone transformation into a porous carbonbased photothermal material. The carbonized bone (CB) not only is composed of inherent interlinked mesoporous microchannels for efficient water transportation but ...
