Artificial Reconstruction of Life Energy Processes?

[FlyingPanda]

Hi there,

As we know, many innovations and designs in science are based off the natural world. I was wondering if it would be possible to create an efficient process of energy transfer similar to how living organisms work, with their use of Enzymes, ATP, etc for relatively efficient energy transfer as well as the use of carbohydrates and fats for energy storage.

The advantages of the natural process:
- All substances are completely reusable and the system can theoretically transfer an unlimited amount of energy and still be good.
- A high efficiency and speed in energy transfer.
- Robustness of the system to accept and give a wide range of energies.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Not sure if I'm missing something here, but without repairs it wouldn't be any better than a mechanical system. In fact, my body has broken down more times in the last 4 years than my car.

The body is constantly regenerating itself.
