Here for the great content good interview and happy with the production levels. do what you can with what you have now. every step in the right direction helps
Geopolymers are a class of chemicals that provide the same bond function as the Portland cement. Many of these may produce less carbon or even use carbon-containing molecules in the curing process.
OMG SEAN IS BEAUTIFUL SWIPE RIGHT! Also, the Up Catalyst stuff is quite interesting. I am wondering if they are considering how adaptable they will need to be when "deploying" solutions into the field. Somehow I cannot imagine any let's say two cement plants being the same. A friend of mine works for a cement plant, they recently merged with or acquired another company and they are having all kinds of problems regarding various incompatibilities with all kinds of equipment, so I cannot imagine quick adoption of something "extra" unless it is turnkey.
@@dandantheideasman The differences in the physical exhaust pipes or vents, surrounding building constraints, physical footprint of the Up Catalyst product, and so on. They are already running into problems with the basics while combining the two companies, per my friend unless this thing could start making them money day one, they wouldn't even consider it due to fairly simple logistics like basic plumbing - even if it was straight forward. The easier it is to deploy, the more likely Up Catalyst can make some headway into the market.
@@mark_loveless Thank you for your insight, really appreciate it 😁🙏 Though, to counter the costs; I believe that the initial financial gains can be achieved through good policy structure. If the planet's atmosphere and the survival of our species is prioritized in government legislation, then it should be easy to finance and gain carbon credits from the installation - whilst stockpiling future fuel for a more cost effective production. Though, the rates in which solar, wind and tidal are being installed, there is probably no need for such ventures in the West. However, I feel that investment is needed in Africa to make the transition and China has much need for such technology, due to their current grid infrastructure, and, of course, our collective air. 🤔
Good to see the emphasis on capturing emissions from processes that are hard to replace, and making useful products rather than burying it.

The extraction of the carbon will be from exhausts of one kind or another, so I fail to see how this would hinder their efforts? 🙃

The next steps in the process of 'recycling at a molecular level' is to allow it to become a 'trekish Replicator!
So, maybe I missed it, though, would love to know what happens to the oxygen in this separation process?
The argument that carbon capturing benefits the fossil fuel industry, is like the argument that life wests prevent people from learning to swim.

Mat could use a couple more flashlights in his studio. It looks like he is in a cave.
I think the new camera just does a better job of highlighting how bad you look 😉
