Chinese scientists synthesize sugar from carbon dioxide Asia News Network (ANN) is the leading regional alliance of news titles striving to bring the region closer, through an active sharing of editorial content on happenings in the region.
Chinese scientists have successfully synthesized sugar from carbon dioxide in a controlled laboratory setting, marking a significant advancement in artificial sugar production. Groundbreaking study: The research, published last week in the journal Chinese Science Bulletin, is the result of a collaboration between the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology and the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics. After over two years of extensive experimentation, the research team managed to address the challenges posed by conventional sugar extraction methods.
Scientists carry out experiments at a laboratory of the Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology under the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Tianjin, north China, Aug. 13, 2023. Chinese scientists have developed an artificial method of synthesizing hexoses from carbon dioxide (CO2) in a laboratory environment -- a key step in the global development of synthetic sugar.
