The “self-heating” boron catalyst makes particularly efficient use of sunlight to reduce CO 2 , serving as a light harvester, photothermal converter, hydrogen generator, and catalyst in one. At this temperature it reacts with water, forming hydrogen and boron oxides in situ. When the sun shines on a surface, it is heated.

Researchers at the University of Copenhagen have discovered a natural process for the breakdown of biomass they describe as “reverse photosynthesis”—as opposed to the building of biomass as is the case with photosynthesis. The immense energy in solar light can be used so that processes can take place without additional energy inputs.
