Scientists have created endless energy sources?

Scientists have just made an important step in semi-artificial photosynthesis that can even create a source of 'unlimited renewable energy'.

Homes at Cambridge University in the UK have successfully developed a new, more efficient way to extract water into hydrogen and oxygen by bonding photosynthesis with hydrogenase, an enzyme found in algae.

(artificial photosynthesis) has been applied in the past few decades, but scientists have never developed it to a large enough extent to be used in industrial scale production, or at an operable level. without the need for expensive and polluting equipment.

Semi-artificial photosynthesis is a relatively new field of research. This is a technique of 'mimicking' algae to extract water into hydrogen and oxygen by combining artificial technologies and biological processes.

In the latest study, researchers at Cambridge University focused on the enzyme called hydrogenase found in a variety of algae - which has been in a dormant state for thousands of years. This enzyme has the ability to turn water into hydrogen and oxygen. In particular, hydrogen could become a future fuel, replacing existing fuel sources such as coal and oil . Their findings have been published in Nature Energy.

'Hydrogenase is an enzyme that appears in algae that separates protons into hydrogen atoms,' said Katarzyna Sokól, the lead author of the study. 'In the evolutionary process, this process is suspended because it is not necessary for survival, but we have succeeded in' regenerating 'this process and achieving the desired response - extraction. splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen atoms ".

Hydrogenase also significantly increases the amount of energy produced and stored. Sekól believes that this process will launch new innovative studies in the world of renewable energy.

By being able to create an endless source of hydrogen without too many complicated machines and without harming the environment, scientists have opened a new era in creating endless energy sources.

This research is also essential to the future of the space travel industry - as scientists continue to make efforts to find the most effective solutions to maintaining the operation of the adventurous ships. into deep spaces in space.
