Scientists have found a way to extract energy from photosynthesis | DW News


Scientists led by Cambridge University have found a way to extract energy from photosynthesis. The research published in the journal Nature into a photosynthetic bacteria called cyanobacteria could lead to a new source of clean energy.

  1. no se debe creer todo lo que se dice romantizando las plantas , es falso que la eficiencia energetica de las plantas frente a los paneles solares sea de 100% cuando solo es entre 1 a 2% y no solo eso el simple hecho de vender el show de las plantas salvadoras y no mostrar nada tangente

  2. Some of the explanations in this are incorrect. While the plants' photosynthetic organelles, the chloroplasts, can convert almost 100% of the light they absorb, the plant doesn't use 100% of visible light. Especially green light is not used in photosynthesis and is reflected, and because of that most photosynthetic plants are green.

  3. Is that energy – what you talk about- benefit for that plant or another nature- enviroment point? I am asking this, because sometimes when we take from nature, its result can be worse for the world. Maybe it used for another reaction or something in nature? Regards

  4. Blood is very important as the human body has the same photosynthesis process as an important process for trees to develop plants. Again a disaster idea has a big negative impact on earth. Everyone focuses on pros. Find also cons. Big disaster.

  5. “Scientists found a way” years go… bio diesel is not new. A very potent way of capturing, storing and releasing solar energy. If you need a solar way of doing what fossil fuels do, bio diesel is very comparable to diesel and is often mixed together.

    “Plants… 100% of visible light” no… just no. Not even remotely close.
    You can check that at a glance as plants reflect green light, meaning green visible light is mostly not being used. Just a quick googly search and “The best wavelengths of visible light for photosynthesis fall within the blue range (425–450 nm) and red range (600–700 nm)”, in other words not much green/ a thirdish less than 100% of visible light.
