Researchers have successfully synthesized fumarate (fumaric acid), a raw material for unsaturated polyester resin, by combining carbon dioxide (CO2) with pyruvate (derived from biomass), using two ...

Fertilizer does not actually “feed” your plants. Let’s be clear, plants get their food from sunlight. I know we may have heard about photosynthesis and not paid much mind to this process. I was the ...

In plants, natural photosynthesis binds carbon dioxide (CO 2­) to organic compounds, which can then be converted into glucose or starch. These useful molecules can be sequestered, storing the carbon ...
