Abstract

The article offers information on a novel artificial photosynthesis system designed to produce methane from carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. Topics include the use of photocatalytic reaction cells mimicking plant photosynthesis, the integration of hydrogen production and CO₂ conversion, and the system's potential for scalable biofuel generation and chemical feedstock synthesis.
