Because this community is about green, and mentions 'energy production', i'd like to bring to attention this new tech. It can be retrofitted to combustion engines and reduces emissions drastically. Output has seen to achieve 0% CO2 and 20% O2. (if another community would be better suited, i'm happy to place it there)

From the video: Dec 14, 2023 Global reduction of CO2 emissions is critical for the survival of our planet. This video demonstrates the MSAART Plasmoid Power Thunderstorm Generator which provides the solution.

looks like pseudoscience bullshit to me.

i agree it's not done and dusted.

But it's less pseudoscience as the "GEET reactor" which seemingly has some similar principles operating in it. However, that was by a few people who didn't have the physics insight/skills to properly analyze what they'd sometimes seen. This "thunderstorm generator" has some proper engineers in various places working at it.

i googled geet vs thunderstorm and actually came across this post. Not really reassuring :/

Flagrant disregard for thermodynamics and conservation of mass in this post. The carbon has to go somewhere, and removing it from flue gasses will always be extremely energy intensive

But converting isn't the same as what you're suggesting

[–] FleetingTit@feddit.org 3 points 3 months ago

Converting, on a chemical level, always means either combining or breaking apart atoms into or from molecules. To get O2 from CO2 you need to break off the Carbon atom. It will be left over. Where does it go?
