Researches from University of Texas have proven that concentrated light, heat and high pressures can be used to drive this type of reaction.The process is simple, inexpensive and environmentally clean - a byproduct of the reaction is oxygen.
Concentrated light powers the photochemical reactions, which enables the synthesis of hydrocarbons in a one-step process. The invention is also important from climate protection perspective because it allows to pull carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to produce liquid hydrocarbon fuels.
