In a recent study from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, plant biology has helped design a method to transform water into hydrogen and oxygen. During this chemical process, two membrane-bound protein complexes were made to react using energy from the sun. The method is based on prior research (2011) which was conducted on the protein complex Photosystem I. This protein complex forms a membrane that uses...
Artificial photosynthesis is a technique that shows promising results in the search for viable alternatives to fossil fuels, as it is a way to harvest solar energy to create hydrogen from water. For this process, so-called water splitting devices are used, which have yet to live up to their potential because their design still does not have the right properties to function efficiently. Now, researchers at the U.S. Department of...
