A team of researchers from Harvard University has created an artificial leaf that can mimic photosynthesis to produce a renewable fuel source . Following the regeneration process , the researchers are able to turn the energy created into a liquid fuel . The team has been able to increase the efficiency of the fuel , producing ethanol with five times the efficiency of combustion .
A team of researchers from Harvard University has created an artificial leaf that can mimic photosynthesis to produce a renewable fuel source. Following the photosynthesis process, the researchers are able to turn the energy created into a liquid fuel. The team has been able to increase the efficiency of the process, creating biomass with ten times the efficiency of plants.
