Microbes Produce #Green Fuel from Sun

Scientists harness microbes that "eat" electrons produced by solar cells and "excrete" a green synthetic fuel that can later be used whether the sun is shining or not. Look for alternative fuels made by sunlight within five years. R.C.J.


Here's what the researchers say about their own work: UMass Amherst Researchers Developing Potentially ‘Transformative’ Method to Produce Clean, Green Biofuels...A new way to make valuable chemicals and more affordable “green” fuel from solar power, bacteria and carbon dioxide could be “truly transformative” for our society if it works on a commercial scale...
