Companies have been manufacturing synthetic fuels for nearly a century by combining carbon monoxide (which can be sourced ...

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.

Chinese researchers have developed a new kind of artificial leaf that can track the movement of the sun, much like real leaves. Able to produce electricity and potentially split water into ...

Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) Sydney have developed an ‘artificial leaf’ that converts nitrates in wastewater into useful ammonia using sunlight. Unlike industrial ...

Hydrocarbons for synthetic fuels: A British-American team has developed an artificial leaf that uses sunlight to convert carbon dioxide into more complex hydrocarbons. The system is based on ...

Judge orders Columbia student protester be allowed private calls with lawyers A U.S. judge on Wednesday ordered that a detained Columbia University student be allowed to have private phone calls ...

In 2015, however, continued improvements led to the ‘artificial leaf’, a one square centimetre electrode device that achieved a ηSTC of 4.6%, exceeding that of typical plants. Kato’s team ...

Nathan Lewis will present about the discovery and development of materials and a system architecture for the direct production of fuels from sunlight. The membrane-embedded microwire array approach is ...

The team set out with one goal – to find ways to reuse carbon dioxide in a sustainable way, achieved through the design of an artificial plant. In nature, plants feed themselves using photosynthesis, ...

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. For ...
