The researchers think that it could be recycling smokestack carbon dioxide into clean-burning fuel within 5-10 years. If we can generate green methane, it’s a big deal. Turning carbon dioxide into methane is a very difficult process. Likewise, H 2 O must be broken down to attach the hydrogen to the carbon.
