With the researchers’ novel technique using electricity, even carbon sourced from food scraps, plastic waste and wood clippings can be the starting material for high-quality graphene. That changed in 2002, when Andre Geim, a University of Manchester physics professor, re-discovered graphene. team, the industry is about to change.
