Literature study:  Time set aside for learning the necessary material for understanding, and performing the experiment and project. This included reading about the set up and processes behind photovoltaic cells, electrolysis, and fuel cells.

Ordering Supplies: Researching and deciding the proper materials to order, based on price, eco-friendliness, and abundance.

Drawing Design: Creating a general outline for the project not only on paper, but designing some aspects in computer programs to help test how it may work.

Part Assembly: The building of the structure, from the basic assembly to the finished design as one finished deliverable (not necessarily including electrical connections or processes of the reactor)

Reactor Testing: Testing the effectiveness of the photovoltaic cell along with the electrolyte, and confirming their capability to perform the proper tasks intended by artificial photosynthesis.

Electrical design: The construction of the electrical connections used to transfer energy within the cell, and affirming the maximum effectiveness of electrolysis.

Troubleshooting: Addressing general mistakes and problems within the design and working out the kinks that are left to fix.

Testing: Testing the final design, and working to make it as effective as possible, without sacrificing parts of the structure and avoid more spending.

Final Report Presentation: Creating the final presentation which will encompass the effectiveness of the design as well as preparing a demonstration for the class to witness.
