Toyota Central R&D Labs is scaling up an efficient system that uses sunlight, water and carbon dioxide to produce ... continued improvements led to the ‘artificial leaf’, a one square ...

It would replicate what leaves do: use solar energy to break water into hydrogen and oxygen, and add carbon dioxide to produce a source of fuel. Leaves make sugar, a “fuel” that helps plants grow. The ...

which is why he's dubbed it "artificial leaf." He says the discovery could have many applications and help in the fight against global warming. Carbon dioxide conversion has long held the ...

Artificial leaf generates electricity during photosynthesis ... providing improved air quality and renewable electricity amid ...

"I really believe that artificial photosynthesis will be one part of that energy portfolio over the next two decades." When plants photosynthesise, they take up water and carbon dioxide ...

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, ...

Researchers have developed floating "artificial leaves" that generate clean fuels from sunlight and water. The University of Cambridge researchers said they took inspiration for the ultra-thin ...

The researchers also aim to remove CO2 from the atmosphere through this method, making it cleaner and better in the long run.
