Scientists: Solar-powered water splitting is a promising means of generating clean energy
Water is already a vital component of human life, but scientists have found yet another use for it — as a source of clean fuel. It comprises two oxygen atoms and a hydrogen atom — the latter, in particular, is an increasingly popular energy source because it is easily stored and holds a lot of energy. […]

Study explores semi-artificial photosynthesis; a new way to produce and store solar energy
Researchers found a better way to squeeze more electricity out of solar power. An article in Science Daily described how they modified photosynthesis so that it could split water into its component molecules. In the photosynthetic process, sunlight is used by plants, some bacteria, and certain protists to turn carbon dioxide and water into food. Oxygen is […]

New artificial photosynthesis device to be used to harvest clean hydrogen fuel
Science is not new to seeking inspiration from nature. A photochemical diode capable of artificial photosynthesis could be the latest solution to obtaining clean energy, says research published in the journal Nature Communications. The device is comparable to a conventional solar cell – they are, in fact, made from almost the same materials. It uses […]
