Re: [DIYbio] Re: Off-grid Algae Storage?

Even getting 1 kW for 9.5 h per 24 for a m^3 of 'footage' is a hard sell for human created stuff.

As an existent energy source Methane is misrepresented substantially. First combusted any old way it still benefits pollution abatement with 1/2 the burden of higher C-Chain fuels.

A Black box to take mostly Methane from any source and yield energy + C composited to a solid not a gas makes Methane much more amenable to a lean-in as a energy yield system without any excuses.

A haemoglobin like subsystem in built life con-existent with fuel cell ... whatever to nail down carbon would be worth a substantial energy allocation. H2 whether as 'city gas' from Anthracite or made is usable with considerable difficulties of all sorts. CH4 is easy to use, store, societies have considerable experience handling nat gas safely too..


The usual notion when C and O2 are in a system, someplace CO2 comes out. Ok, but managing Oxygen carefully is something life does well. Again: CH4 in, C-anything solid + usable energy. Combustion generally burdens such a process incredibly with unwanted high temperature products. No life science system works with effluents as hot as burning ... anything. Even if a processor had layer after layer of a microbial life to get C2 isolated its advantage procedurally compared to H2 is may be a game changer. Graphene-ish out I suppose is best. Diamond is a reference mtl in the notion too.
