Renewable Photosynthesis

in #energy6 years ago (edited)

A chemistry professor in Florida has just found a way to trigger the process of photosynthesis in a synthetic material, turning greenhouse gases into clean air and producing energy all at the same time.

The process has great potential for creating a technology that could significantly reduce greenhouse gases linked to climate change, while also creating a clean way to produce energy.

“This work is a breakthrough,” said UCF Assistant Professor Fernando Uribe-Romo. “Tailoring materials that will absorb a specific color of light is very difficult from the scientific point of view, but from the societal point of view we are contributing to the development of a technology that can help reduce greenhouse gases.”

With all the chaos going on how nice it is to hear of positive advancements. What do you think about this information?

Amazing. It’s hard to keep up with all of these mind blowing scientific advancements. Thanks for posting that. I’ll tell my students about this breakthrough tomorrow.

Interesting post, every day we advance more with technology
