Science is the full of discovery. A team of scientists at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory has discovered a way to convert carbon dioxide to ethanol. Scientists have expected this discovery could aid the development of new methods to fight against climate change.

The process is done uses a mixture of various catalysts- carbon, copper, and nitrogen by using nanotechnology that ensures they produce the desired material ", described by ORNL researcher Adam Rondinone.

This was a surprise discovery. The science can use this development of new methods to fight against climate challenge. The research provides greenhouse gas carbon dioxide is converted by pushing that combustion reaction backward with a very high selectivity to a useful fuel, reported by Times.

This combined impact of switching to renewable energy and using its output to create better gasoline fuel like ethanol could be substantial. This system is widely adopted by consumers and business.

Carbon dioxide is causing man-made climate change and responsible for greenhouse effect as a result temperature increased. But scientists have warned that to keep global warming below from human risk, we will need to develop a method to take the gas out of the atmosphere. The different proposal has focused on carbon dioxide storage but the method proved costly, reported by Motor Trend.

The researchers explain that they were able to achieve such high yields because of the nanostructure that was easy to manipulate and adjust to get the desired results.

The scientists behind ORNL study say that the process they created in the lab would provide a way of capturing renewable energy for storage. That is a big achievement for researchers as it could allow people to stop relying on fossil fuels for energy. Second, it would be a way of capturing climate-warming carbon dioxide because it would control the climate damage by reducing the use burning fossil fuels.

Science has a long storied looking for one thing but finding something better instead. This discovery added a new chapter in the history of science.
