Add visible light energy to your carbon dioxide recycling process and you get a two-for-one deal

New research from the University of Illinois captures energy from the visible light spectrum to enhance carbon dioxide recycling. Credit: National Science Foundation By combining visible light and electrochemistry, researchers accelerated the conversion of carbon dioxide into valuable products and stumbled upon a surprising discovery. The research team shows that visible light significantly improves an important chemical property called selectivity,…
