Study suggests a ten-fold efficiency increase possible when converting carbon dioxide to fuel using solar energy

A trio of researchers with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory working at the Joint Center for Artificial Photosynthesis has found that it should be possible to achieve an approximate ten-fold increase in efficiency over natural photosynthesis, when converting carbon dioxide to fuel using solar energy. In their paper published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Meenesh Singh, Ezra Clark and Alexis Bell describe the various scenarios they tested and why they believe it should b
