artificial photosynthesis
-
Researchers around the world have made some promising advances in artificial synthesis of late, but researchers from the University of Cambridge say they can produce better results by reactivating a natural mechanism that vanished through billions of years of plant evolution.

Using the power of the sun to split water and produce hydrogen fuel is one of the most promising clean energy technologies being pursued. Now researchers at the University of Exeter have created a semiconductor material that should help make it viable.
-
ScienceDcientists at the University of Central Florida have come up with synthetic material that draws on visible light from the sun to produce solar fuels, sucking harmful CO2 out of the air in the process.
-
As part of the on-going pursuit of artificial photosynthesis to produce hydrogen, researchers from Forschungszentrum Jülich claim to have created a working, compact, self-contained artificial photosynthesis system that could form the basis for practical commercial devices
-
Researchers have edged closer toward the reality of artificial photosynthesis, developing what they describe as a game-changing solar cell that produces hydrocarbon fuels in the lab, with potential applications ranging from large-scale uses on Earth to providing power on Mars.
-
Researchers at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) claim to have created a hybrid artificial photosynthesis system that produces both hydrogen and methane, all from water and solar energy.
-
Researchers at Monash University claim to have created a solar-powered device that splits water to produce hydrogen at a world-record 22 percent efficiency, which is a significant step towards making cheap, efficient hydrogen production a reality.
