KAIST has made a giant leap in artificial photosynthesis. On April 23, the Dept. of Materials Science & Engineering lead by Park Chan-bum announced that they successfully created artificial photosynthesis system using nanomaterials.

This basically imitates a natural photosynthesis system. The only difference between them is that artificial photosynthesis is with light sensitive materials, which are usually used in a solar battery. Also, they have created a system, which light energy is able to produce fine chemicals by using a redox reaction.

For last 20 years, replicating photosynthesis has been a dream of the alternative energy business. Artificial photosynthesis is the best eco-rich energy source. For that reason, what Park and his team have invented makes the world excited and is expected to have a ripple effect in the bio-industry. This is due to the fact that the system adopts infinitive solar energy.
