A group of scientists working at the University of Cambridge, one of the most important aspects of our lives, photosynthesis They did a remarkable study on Plants leak electrons during photosynthesis, according to research published in the journal Nature. In addition, these electrons can be directed. So technically from photosynthesis to generate electricity found possible.

As part of the study, the researchers gave laser beams to the photosynthesizing samples and for a bit They watched things change. In the studies conducted, it was found that there was a release of electrons when photosynthesis began in plant cells. The plant did this to protect itself from the harmful effects of the sun, but humanity would do much more if it could achieve its goal. economical will take a stand.

Could revolutionize solar cells and biofuels

Previous research has even hinted that electrons may be created during photosynthesis. Recent research has shown that these electrons be directed demonstrated that it is possible. According to previous studies, such a situation was impossible. Making a statement on the subject, researcher Dr. Jenny Zhang”This is a completely new approach to biofuel production. One of the earliest and strongest points of photosynthesis electrons we collect and we guide them.‘ he said.

One of the collaborators on the study, Dr. Tomi Baikie, said the method in question efficiency talked about. “What makes photosynthesis really special is the conversion of light into electrons. almost 100% is efficiency.said the scientist,We can use that knowledge to improve existing solar cell technology.‘ he said.

The research is not only important for biofuels and solar cells. The researchers found that when the electrons were disrupted, those of the plant performance of carbon dioxide capture. They discovered that they had changed. This is also very important because if the discovery is implemented globally, greenhouse gas emissions will be brought under control this time. Maximum Carbon dioxide capture performance could improve Earth’s sustainability.

Although research on photosynthesis is still in its infancy, promising future. Experts believe that new research building on this work will provide more insight into how photosynthesis can be managed. If the desired point can be reached, our life will change dramatically. Jenny Zhang”In the long term, if we can generate self-generating, self-recycling, renewable energy and fuel from living materials, it will for sustainability in the future it will be one of the greenest options imaginable.‘ he said.
