Based on those previous studies, Yang and his team reasoned that artificial photosynthesis devices equipped with a copper catalyst should be able to convert CO 2 and water into methyl and carbonyl groups, and then turn these products into acetate. Researchers from Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley participated in the study.
