🚨NEW PAPER🚨
"A promising solution to nullify the net embodied #GHG emissions of civil infrastructure is the use of C-negative materials for concrete manufacturing. C-neutral coal ash & agriculture/forestry by-products, like #biochar, exhibit a high CO2 uptake potential."

📝 A lately published paper aimed "to explore the viability of using #biochar as a #CarbonSink and to develop carbon-neutral #concrete with improved performance."

📉 Experimental findings suggest that "the optimal amount of biochar (1%) slightly improves hydration and mechanical properties, but the combination with mineral additives significantly enhances the performance."

🚨PAPER🚨

The newly published article focuses on the physical & chemical aspects of #CO2 #storage via liquid & solid chemical carriers & sorbents & gives an overview of the energetics around their use & options for their future development.

Research pointed that "exciting opportunities for coupling #capture and medium to high maturity multi-year #storage technologies could support #CarbonRemoval in the coming decades."

Highlights of the analysis are:
🔸"The remarkable #storage capacity of oxalic acid & formic acid (CO2-density of 1857 kg m−3 & 1152 kg m−3, compared with condensed liquid CO2 at 993–1096 kg m−3, respectively)."

🚨 PAPER 🚨

A viable & novel formula for a #CarbonNegative, environmentally friendly #concrete that is nearly as strong as regular concrete has been developed recently at Washington State University.

#Concrete
#Biochar
#CarbonSequestration

*Summary* in a🧵 below:
1/6 Image
🧫 Researchers exemplify "a synergistic C-capture strategy, i.e., using #concrete washout water & #biochar together to achieve carbon-negative concrete."

"This strategy enabled the biochar to #capture 22.85 wt% air-borne CO2, which precipitated CaCO3 onto the biochar."

🔬"This carbon-negative cement paste consisted of 30 wt% CO2-weathered #biochar and 70 wt% portland limestone #cement, which achieved the 7-day and 28-day compressive strengths of 22.1 MPa and 27.6 MPa, respectively," microscopic investigation revealed.

Two papers OUT NOW in @NatureCancer ‼️ What does the immune response in cancer patients look like after COVID-19 vaccination or SARS-CoV-2 infection? We present results from the #CAPTURE study. Two-part thread (vaccine & infection cohort findings) to follow... 🧵🧵 (1/4) https://www.nature.com/articles/s43018-021-00274-whttps://www.nature.com/articles/s43018-021-00275-9
About the study: #CAPTURE a prospective, longitudinal cohort study established in April 2020 and conducted at @royalmarsdenNHS and @TheCrick. #CAPTUREstudy recruitment and analyses are ongoing (2/4) cell.com/cell/fulltext/…
CAPTURE assessed functional immunity in cancer patients – given registry studies @COVID19nCCC @UKCORONACANCER show cancer patients are vulnerable to COVID19 & vaccines induce robust adaptive immunity but may be lower in blood cancer patients @EJohnWherry @florian_krammer (3/4)

Sharing my Personal Knowledge Management system is made up of 4 types of note:

- A capture note: unedited text captured in various ways
- Organisation notes
- Distil notes: expressing capture notes in my own words
- Express notes are my original ideas

In more detail... (THREAD)
1/ Capture notes are imported into Roam and tagged #Capture:

- Articles and newsletters go into Instapaper. When I read I make highlight which syncs with Readwise
- I highlight in Kindle which syncs with Readwise
- I upload PDFs to Liner and export highlights to Roam
- I capture from physical books using the camera in the Readwise app on my phone
- I DM Tweets to Readwise
- I send podcast snippets to Roam via @AirrAudio
- I'm missing a workflow for audiobooks!! The Airr Audio app for capturing notes for podcasts and feed

So let's unpack this.

We hear a lot about "#dashboards"; we were even promised sight of one, back in March* - though we've not seen it yet.

But what are they, in reality?

Well, for starters, we know quite a bit about @NHSEngland's 'dashboard(s)': back in March, @MattHancock gave it powers to DEMAND confidential patient information from care providers*, for (broadly defined) "#COVID19 purposes"...

Under the #COPInotices:

...and we know @NHSEngland's hoovering up *at least* 70 different datasets into its #DataStore (the list at data.england.nhs.uk/covid-19/ is no longer comprehensive due to the controversial contents of some of the datasets).

As its "#PrivacyNotice" points out,

1. "Absolute devastation": The whistleblower who will "never work again" after helping tax watchdog. @Adele_Ferguson

Ron Shamir has a lot to be angry about...

2. At a Senate inquiry into the performance of the Inspector General of Taxation, which acts as the watchdog for the Australian Taxation Office, the whistleblower outlined how the system had failed him.

#Auspol @Insp_Gen_Tax @ATO_gov_au
3. “The result has been absolute devastation… My family and I have been living in poverty and I have been told by experts I will never work again,” he told the Senate committee.

Shamir became a whistleblower after he witnessed misconduct in the @ATO_gov_au relating...

#Thread for #liberals who are fond of using term #IndianOccupiedKashmir.
Dear ill informed liberals,
There is no entity called #IndianOccupiedKashmir where as there is an entity called #PakistanOccupiedJammuKashmir also known as #POJK !
Its #Pakistan not #India that has occupied
#JammuAndKashmir was one of the princely states that had only 2 options like other princely states
Either accede to #India or accede to #Pakistan
Maharaja Hari Singh,a #Hindu ruler of #JammuAndKashmir didn't want to take #hasty decision for his sate that had #muslim majority 1/n
Maharaja Hari Singh could have easily acceded to India immediately as all powers of taking decision for accession was with him only but being a #secular Dogra ruler under whose rule not a single instance of forced #religious conversion can be found decided to take some time ! 2/n
