• Scientists plan for making fuel from sun, water, carbon dioxide and nanotechnology

    I like scientists. They have a way of bringing so many alternatives to make life on earth a comfortable option. A bunch of scientists from the Pennsylvania State University have apparently come up with a way of making fuel by sun, water, carbon dioxide and nanotechnology. They may have come with an option to use sun to make fuel but with a costly alternative. The researches used titanium dioxide, nitrogen, copper and platinum to prepare the experiment and were able to produce methane and water.


    This seems a probable way of preparing the alternative but there are risks for instance the costs as it involves platinum and that doesn’t come cheap even for a nature loving race. The experiment however can do a lot more benefit with intensive research and work for improvised steps and maybe in another decade, this might indeed be a favourable option for fuel.
