I do not know how to embed gifs
If you want to embed gifs you have to toggle the switch from suck to blow
So I just don’t have to suck hmmm
Lemmy works on markdown, so if you want to do anything, just look up “how to do x in markdown.” For example:
https://itsfoss.com/markdown-images/If you want to learn more generally, there are many guides, e.g.:
https://www.markdownguide.org/getting-started/And if you want to play around without other people seeing any mistakes you make, there are multiple web interfaces as well as local editors that will display your works in real time, such as:
https://markdownlivepreview.com/Hope this helps!
edit: Also, markdown is fantastic, but its syntax can be confusing or hard to remember. I don’t know about all clients, but mine - Connect - has buttons at the bottom of the text entry area to generate the syntax for images (and links). Yours might have something similar.
I can just upload gifs like an image with Jerboa. Some other clients don’t work, because it becomes a jpg for some reason.
Like this
I like it, it’s a good idea. Im still confused as to what form the carbon takes once extracted. Is it just a solid block?
It’s gasuous CO2. The process pulls in water, acidifies it to release carbon as CO2 to air in a sealed space, pumps that water to the next phase which adjusts the pH back up to normal, then the carbon poor water is pumped back into the ocean.
Meanwhile, the CO2 in the previously mentioned sealed space is concentrated up to about 98%, but it’s still a gas. While this may or may not be a more efficient extraction system, it still has the same issue all extraction systems face: what to do with the extracted gas.
Also, wow:
Once the seawater is back in equilibrium with the atmosphere, a process that should take less than one year (Zeebe and Wolf-Gladrow, 2008), it is chemically indistinguishable from the seawater that came in.
I thought this was a reasonably quick process, but a year? How do you buffer a years supply of sea water? You either need a massive massive plant, or this does not take in that much
The water just dilutes back into the rest of the ocean, lowering its average carbon content a minuscule amount. It’ll take a year or less for it to reabsorb as much atmospheric CO2 as was removed and for any carbon compounds altered by the pH changes to revert. It’ll likely hit peak CO2 before that point. This isn’t a big deal unless it’s done at massive scale in concentrated areas.
An “easy” way to handle this is to return the water to the deep ocean, where it’s less impactful to ocean life and has a much larger area in which to dilute.
Yeah I think so.
I wonder how they’d scale something like this up though if it’s a success?
To be honest this is the one CC project that sounds easily scalable to me. You deploy one at every beach, taking up a residence or two nearby. Swimmers enjoy the low-CO2 water, and the sea handles the mixing. Burying the carbon might require some work
