Why cant some scientists build a fan like thing that sucks carbon dioxide and release oxygen just like a tree?

Question

just an idea

if scientist can do it that would be so cool

Answer 1

Easier saying than doing!   I've got the answer ... use a tree!!

Answer 2

thats probalby possible but the amount of energy used in the process would just make that machine useless

Answer 3

dont worry ill make later

Answer 4

Good lateral thinking, and why should it be so difficult to synthesise chlorophyll which could somehow be incorporated in the process? If we can work out the human genome, etc., this should not be impossible.

Answer 5

cus hd tvs are cooler

Answer 6

Actually they have.

It is called an Oxygen Scrubber.

The technology is used in underwater rebreathers.

It passes oxygen and filters out the larger carbon dioxide molecules.

Even still it doesn’t change the carbon dioxide into plant material, as do trees.

You might be able to create a machine to do this by then bubbling the CO2 through a biomass of algae surrounded with sunlamps to take advantage of photosynthesis.

Answer 7

because the sky is blue... LOL are you out of your mind

Answer 8

Scientists don't have to build such a fan because we have PLANTS to do that...... plant more trees and stop stripping the rainforests of the world.....try a sunflower they are pretty fans
