Chinese researchers have built a working version of what oil companies have chased for decades: a device that uses sunlight ...

Scientists make a material capable of capturing electrical energy following the process of photosynthesis.

The artificial photosynthesis market offers growth in numerous segments, including technology like co-electrolysis and nanotechnology, catalysts such as semiconductor catalysts, and applications in ...

Plants fix 258 billion tons of CO2 in their chloroplasts through photosynthesis every year. For these cell organelles to work properly, they require certain minerals—particularly ions of the metals ...

New method reveals chemical signs of early microbial life in ancient Earth rocks, showing photosynthesis evolved much earlier than believed.

Photosynthesis, the process by which plants, algae and certain kinds of bacteria convert solar radiation into chemical energy, must adjust itself to changes in the intensity of sunlight, so as to ...

Mushroom World Group AlgaeTree initiative utilizes microalgae to actively capture and sequester carbon, addressing air pollution and enhancing urban air quality ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Humans can do lots of things that plants can’t do. We can walk around, we can talk, we can hear and see and touch. But plants have one major advantage over humans: They can make ...

Plants are rockstars when it comes to creating their own sustainable energy with just three simple ingredients — water, CO2, and sunlight — but scientists now have a plan to turbo-charge this ...

Photosynthesis in plants and a few bacteria is responsible for feeding nearly all life on Earth. It allows energy from the Sun to be converted into a storable form, usually glucose, which plants use ...

Despite being discovered almost 300 ago, photosynthesis still holds many unanswered questions for science, particularly the way that proteins organise themselves to convert sunlight into chemical ...
