  • Researchers from the University of Cambridge have developed an “artificial leaf”.
  • It can convert carbon dioxide into liquid fuels by harnessing the power of sunlight.
  • Importantly, these can directly be used by internal combustion vehicles as drop-in fuels.
  • They replicated the process of photosynthesis by converting carbon dioxide, water and sunlight into two multi carbon fuels— ethanol and propanol.
