On May 10, the National Development and Reform Commission held a press conference to introduce the relevant situation of the "14th Five-Year" bio-economic development plan.
Regarding the new technological achievements in the biological field such as carbon dioxide synthesis of starch and artificial synthesis of proteins, Xu Hang, deputy director of the Science and Technology Promotion and Development Bureau of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that we have been thinking and summarizing the experience behind its success, and promoting and organizing the next technological breakthrough.
The breakthrough of carbon dioxide to synthesize starch is exciting, but it is still a long way from industrial application, and it still faces huge scientific and engineering challenges.

Through in-depth research on chemical catalysis and biocatalysis modules, the biological process technology of high-density energy and high-concentration carbon dioxide utilization has been innovated, and a new way of unnatural carbon dioxide fixation and artificial starch synthesis has been designed. Total synthesis of starch molecules.
The breakthrough of carbon dioxide to synthesize starch is exciting, but it is still a long way from industrial application, and it still faces huge scientific and engineering challenges.
From the perspective of accelerating technological innovation and promoting the achievement of industrial applications, it is necessary to further strengthen the layout of basic research, continuously improve synthesis efficiency, and reduce production costs.
