A Novel ‘Artificial Leaf’ Captures 100 Times More Carbon Than Others

Posted by in categories: engineering, nuclear energy

Using less power than a lightbulb. A team of engineers at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) has developed a relatively low-cost “artificial leaf” that can capture carbon dioxide at rates 100 times faster than existing systems, bringing us one step closer to the goal of engineering the process of photosynthesis by which plants convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into energy.


Nuclear waste can be very harmful to humans and the ecosystem. Watch how it’s handled in our video.
