Photosynthesis is the process that plants, algae, and even certain species of bacteria use to convert sunlight into oxygen and chemical energy stored as sugar (aka gluclose). But what are the ...

Researchers have applied artificial photosynthesis as the basis for developing new sustainable processes. Artificial photosynthesis may produce syngas for the large-scale chemical industry. A future ...

Poly-3-hydroxybutyrate—a biodegradable plastic—is a strong water-resistant polyester often used in packaging materials, made from 3-hydroxybutyrate as a precursor. In previous studies, a research team ...

Using AI and advanced chemistry, scientists uncovered 3.3-billion-year-old chemical traces that mark the earliest evidence of ...
