Synthesising starch from carbon dioxide boosts Chinese environmental goals

A group of Chinese researchers have managed to synthesise starch from carbon dioxide, more efficiently than nature. Scientists hope that creating the highly versatile material in industrial laboratories will save land and water, lessening the burden on traditional agriculture. Researchers at the Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology, an affiliate of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, … Continue reading Synthesising starch from carbon dioxide boosts Chinese environmental goals
