Solar-driven production of renewable chemicals via biomass

Here, the authors report a Cu single-atom catalyst that facilitates the solar-driven synthesis of renewable chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass and green methanol as a hydrogen

Solar methanol energy storage

Methanol is a leading candidate for storage of solar-energy-derived renewable electricity as energy-dense liquid fuel, yet there are different approaches to achieving this goal.

Cost-trivial material contributes greatly: A review of the application

In this work, the various applications of starch (Fig. 1) in energy storage devices such as rechargeable batteries, solar cells and supercapacitors are carefully reviewed to shed light on how

Cell-free chemoenzymatic starch synthesis from carbon dioxide

Starches, a storage form of carbohydrates, are a major source of calories in the human diet and a primary feedstock for bioindustry. We report a chemical-biochemical hybrid pathway for starch

Full article: Illuminating the Future of E-Methanol: Solar Energy

Recent interest has shifted toward the use of solar energy in methanol production, sometimes referred to as sunshine methanol, due to the availability of abundant energy sources.

Realization of a Photoelectrochemical Cascade for the Generation of

Biochemical networks use reaction cascades to selectively reduce CO 2 using energy from sunlight, but can similar selectivity be achieved by applying a cascade approach to an engineered system?

Cell-free chemoenzymatic starch synthesis from carbon dioxide

We report a chemical-biochemical hybrid pathway for starch synthesis from carbon dioxide (CO 2) and hydrogen in a cell-free system.
