This a really bad take. Seawater deal with RO is a marvel of efficiency, only 2-3 times above the thermodynamic limit of demixing water from salt. It does not really generate toxic waste like coal fired power plants, but does produce lots of brine with various organics (antiscalants, surfactants etc.) that are not that great. The key issue is water is very cheap from traditional sources (surface water and groundwater) and requires rather crude treatment to be usable, resulting in very low cost. Hence why desal is used in areas where they have no choice. If you don't have surface/ground water source or brackish water source you are doing seawater deal or leave the area....not many choices. At least RO is electrified so it can use renewables but that does not really solve the much higher cost...or issue of brine generation, with zld have a set of it's own issues costs....
Looks to me like he tried to stop but locked up and slid into the barrier...not sure if he would have stopped on time without that though. Anyone got telemetry ?
They can also leverage regen due to constant stopping, don't get high drag penalty due to low speeds, etc. seems like good application for EV. Makes no sense as you said.
This seems to be a key point ppl miss. There is still quiet a big question if cdr and storage can be net negative...for example one place we want to store co2 is in saline basins, but this will require disposal and treatment of the brines removed from the basin...which might emit might end up emmiting as much co2 as ends up being stored in the saline basin. There is a paper on this issue....
CO2 to syngas to hydrocarbon fuels is probably a better carbon zero process, considering we will need to do a ton of cdr anyway....although doubt energetics and economics would be great. Hydrogen, just like biofuels today are anything but carbon neutral, and efficient electrolysis might never happen. Hydrogen production will also face water shortage issues and in general electrolysis requires pretty low tds water which is not trivial to source...not sure what's best way to get carbon zero airplanes honestly...
This is fair enough...but still seems odd to judge paper solely based on text editor choice...judging paper based on clear errors in presented information is fair game.
This is so close considering this is first race for ric in the same car...maybe he has rebounded from his mclaraen slump. Excited for this weekend to see how he does...
Well the big shaft of the lolly might be just around the corner, enjoy it while it lasts, I'm sure it will enjoy you when the time comes....depressing...
The question on my mind is at what temp will global economy and our current civilization start to implode, as at that point we will probably stop emmiting as people, cities and possibly states literally die off....and than will probably be the new norm...
Best tool for assembling and making journal quality figures. Excited for performance improvements, hopefully it will help when with complex svgs with ton of objects.
Unless Red Bull botched the upgrades and they got poor race pace....but then again I did suggest merc would be out q1 with new format....so that was 50% right...
Lol took u a while....I really want to like Max as he is an amazing driver with insane skill that I respect...but as a person he just seems terrible when competing... Which seems unnecessary with amount of skill he got....
And breaks, don't forget the breaks...that Yuki describes in very colorful words last I remember...
This will be interesting, but my bet is if he could not consistently put decent laps with a shitbox mclaran, changing to a shitbkx alpha won't change a thing....
