The ultimate aim would be to capture wasted CO 2 using renewable hydrogen gas from biohydrogen—as in this research—or electrolysis powered by renewable electricity, and convert it to formic acid. That could have been accomplished by an enzyme “such as the one we found in E. We wanted to try this in the lab.”.
