🚨REVIEW PAPER🚨
#Hydrogen, a green energy carrier, is one of the most promising energy sources. However, it is currently mainly produced from depleting #FossilFuels with high #carbon emissions, which has serious -ve effects on the economy and environment. 
#HyBECCS
#ATT
🧵
1/6 ImageImage
To address this issue, sustainable hydrogen production from bio-energy with #carbon capture and #storage (#HyBECCS) is an ideal technology to reduce global carbon emissions while meeting energy demand. 
2/6 ImageImage
So, a recent review presents an overview of "the latest progress in alkaline thermal treatment (#ATT) of #biomass for #hydrogen production with #carbon storage, mainly focusing on the technical characteristics & related challenges from an industrial application perspective."
3/6 Image
Additionally, the roles of alkali and catalyst in the #ATT process are critically discussed in the review, and several aspects that have great influences on the ATT process are expounded, such as:
🔸biomass types
🔸reaction parameters
🔸reactors
4/6 ImageImage
Review concluded that "compared with WGS, MEC, SMR, #biomass dark fermentation & gasification, #ATT of biomass for #H2 production has the benefits of:
🔸wide range of feedstocks
🔸low energy consumption
🔸high purity of H2
🔸#NegativeCarbonEmission from entire LC of biomass

📰 Here's your round-up of top #CarbonDioxideRemoval News / Developments from this week (13 October - 19 October 2025):

📺:

🧵1/25
Nordbex and Aker Solutions signed an MoU to develop Bio-CCUS plants across Europe.

🚨Scientists built a device that captures carbon from the seawater and turns it into biodegradable plastic, using bacteria as a living bioreactor.

#CDR #mCDR #CarbonDioxideRemoval #Bioplastics

DETAILS🧵1/8 Image
2/ The system comprises 3 components:

1️⃣ C extraction

Traditional seawater electrolysis systems often fail within hours due to mineral buildup

To solve this, researchers designed a solid-state electrolysis unit that isolates sensitive ions using membranes & a solid electrolyte Image
3/ The modified design acidifies H2O, converting dissolved C (mainly bicarbonate & carbonate ions) into CO₂ gas for collection.

The prototype operated continuously for 22 days, processing 177 liters of seawater & extracting 6.54L of CO₂, with an energy use of 3 kWh/kg of CO₂.

🚨French Academy of Sciences has released a new report on #SolarGeoengineering, stressing that the absolute priority must remain reducing GHG emissions via structural changes & accelerating adaptation to climate impacts.

On #SRM, the report offers several recommendations:🧵1/6 Image
2/ SRM Recommendation 1️⃣

Promote an international agreement aimed at prohibit any initiative, public or private, to deploy SRM, regardless of the framework or scale.

To do this, the entire scientific community will have to be involved.
3/ SRM Recommendation 2️⃣

Support & deepen research on climate, atmospheric physicochemical processes and biodiversity in order to be able to rigorously assess the potential & risks of SRM.

🚨An analysis of forest-based projects funded through the sale of #CarbonCredits shows that 10% of them may have a net warming effect on the climate because of the way they alter the Earth’s #albedo, or how much sunlight is reflected back into space.

DETAILS🧵1/12 Image
2/ Albedo is how much sunlight Earth’s surface reflects vs. absorbs

Forests are darker than grass or snow, meaning they absorb more heat

So when grasslands or snowy areas are turned into forests, Earth’s surface can absorb more heat, partly cancelling out cooling effect of #CDR Image
3/ So, this study analyzed 172 Afforestation, Reforestation & Revegetation projects in the Voluntary Carbon Market - projects that collectively aim to deliver nearly 800 million tons of CDR over the next century.

But none of these projects’ standards account for albedo change. Image

🚨New paper argues that rejecting Carbon Dioxide Removal (#CDR) on moral hazard grounds may itself be unjust.

Using a framework of transitional justice, they propose that CDRs can, if carefully governed, form part of a just transition to a livable climate.

🧵1/9 Image
2/ The authors note that with climate overshoot increasingly inevitable, the IPCC and Climate Overshoot Commission both view CDRs as unavoidable.

The question shifts from whether to use CDRs to how to deploy them justly.
3/ The authors apply transitional justice - a framework for navigating imperfect choices to reach fairer outcomes.

It asks: when can seemingly unjust actions (like risky technologies) be justified to achieve a more just, sustainable future?

🚨The Earth is reflecting less & less sunlight, new study reveals🚨

Satellite data show the planet is reflecting less sunlight than it used to, with the Northern Hemisphere darkening fastest.

This imbalance has big implications for climate and rainfall.🧵1/8 Image
2/ Using 24 years of NASA’s CERES satellite data, scientists found both hemispheres now absorb more solar energy than before.

But the Northern Hemisphere has pulled ahead, darkening faster than the South. Image
3/ This breaks a long-standing balance: for decades, Earth’s hemispheres reflected nearly the same amount of sunlight.

That symmetry was thought to be maintained by clouds. But the new data shows the NH is diverging.
