Despite wide-scale adoption of CCUS by the steel industry, little to no progress has been made on commercial-scale CCUS for the decarbonization of blast furnaces.

The device, measuring just 1 sqcm, generated an open-circuit voltage of 0.35 V and a short-circuit current of 10.19 \u03bcA. Remarkably, when exposed to UV light, the device\u2019s performance increased, showing a photocurrent of 1.25 mA and a photovoltage of 0.5 V.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Looking ahead:<\/strong> The technology does not use expensive or toxic materials and leverages renewable resources. The team's findings also suggest potential applications in low-power IoT-based devices, indicating a bright future for this innovative approach to harnessing solar energy. However, challenges such as low efficiency and scalability still need to be addressed.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div
