Nature Energy, Published online: 05 March 2025; doi:10.1038/s41560-025-01735-7Photocatalytic conversion of CO2 typically requires a concentrated gas stream, making direct conversion of atmospheric CO2 to value-added products a challenge. Now, researchers report a photocatalytic reactor to produce useful molecules directly from air-captured CO2 using solar energy.
