Startup OCOchem has built factory-assembled “artificial photosynthesis” cells to make formate, a widely used chemical now ...
Plants have small pores on the underside of their leaves, known as stomata. When the sun rises, these pores open and the plants absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, which they need, in ...
After being absorbed through the stomata, carbon dioxide attaches to Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), an organic molecule that "kickstarts" a part of photosynthesis called the Calvin cycle.
Nicknamed Chonkus, the microbe is a type of cyanobacteria, which feeds on carbon dioxide through photosynthesis like plants.
A new carbon capture technique harnesses sunlight. This first light-powered system can both capture and release carbon dioxide.
Researchers at Cornell University have developed a new way to capture and release carbon dioxide using sunlight, mimicking ...
Here's what the panel looks like: When exposed to light, it creates hydrocarbons from carbon dioxide in the air. The panel is designed to mimic plant photosynthesis and is divided into a ...
The solar-powered device can make valuable energy-dense molecules from carbon dioxide and water. For many years, researchers have been working to build devices that can mimic photosynthesis—the ...
taking in oxygen and breathing out carbon dioxide. Plants, however, have the ability to remove that carbon through photosynthesis, turning gaseous wastes into usable and storable sugars and nutrients.
Perrin (STScI) NASA’s Webb Space Telescope has captured direct images of carbon dioxide in a planet beyond ... on Earth for processes including photosynthesis and the carbon cycle, but also ...
