Think of it as an artificial photosynthesis process similar to the way plants convert carbon dioxide (CO2) and sunlight into food. But instead of producing food, Uribe-Romo's method produces solar ...

The team from Nagoya University has developed a method of artificial photosynthesis that uses water and sunlight to turn organic-compound waste into energy and pharmaceutical materials.

We can do so through photoelectrochemistry, or artificial photosynthesis ... Thanks to this methodology, we can now systematically identify better-performing materials and accelerate progress ...

Artificial photosynthesis is an appealing strategy for producing sustainable fuels, if we can find the right materials to make it work efficiently. Scientists of all backgrounds are coming ...

Coastal waters around the world are increasingly losing oxygen, with dramatic consequences for both ecosystems and the people ...

Research identifies key mechanisms behind copper catalyst degradation in CO2 reduction, enhancing understanding for improved ...

Scientists at Berkeley Lab create solar-powered artificial leaf that turns CO₂ into liquid fuel, marking a major step in ...

The panel's main feature is that it successfully mimics photosynthesis using inorganic materials rather than plant materials, and it is expected that it will be useful for producing plastics and ...

Using an ingenious method inspired by the photosynthesis of living things, scientists have developed a new "artificial leaf" that removes CO2 from the air and turns it into sustainable fuels.

They assume the formic acid will be used as a raw material for generating hydrogen or as fuel for generating power. Toyota Central R&D Labs succeeded in an artificial photosynthesis test in 2011.
