What plant is this and how does it purify the air?
This invention, for now, is a proof of concept, that is: it is a practical model to establish the theoretical concept of creation. The artificial cyanobacterial plant (as it contains cyanobacteria - which carry out photosynthesis) has five artificial leaves that generate clean oxygen and remove CO2 from the air, with the capacity to generate energy to turn on a lamp or power a smartphone, for example.
