The world's first farm of mechanical CO2 absorbing trees

- Almost half of the carbon dioxide produced on the planet is consumed by the oceans, living organisms, and plants. At the same time, plants play the most important role, since they not only absorb CO2 but also produce oxygen, which is of great importance to people and animals. But if moss, shrubs, and other vegetation have the ability to absorb carbon dioxide, then trees, in addition, are also able to fully filter the air, purifying it of all harmful substances. Scientists even conducted an experiment, establishing that oak gall, bitter orange, lemon, and laurel filter the air quite well. The approximate “power” of one tree was also established: an adult plant can absorb up to 80 kilograms of CO2 per year! Seems like a big number, right? But cities with industrial plants manage to produce much more of this harmful gas. On average, human activity around the world creates 36 billion tons of CO2 per year, directly affecting climate change around the world.

If it's an "artificial tree", it should produce oxygen.
Or we could just grow hemp which takes in 4x the amount of CO2 as trees and in a cycle of 120 days you can harvest, replant, etc. Hemp cause be used for all sorts of things instead most of which could replace ever cutting a tree down again.
Device will absorb carbon dioxide but the govt will do with that gas how are we going to dispose off such massive amount without pumping massive amounts of money
Stupidist idea to make something that costs so much when trees grow for free and give a resource. Co2 is just above the minimum needed for plant growth.
I understand your point. However, I am afraid we have gone past the line where trees alone could help us. Some effective artificial means should be in place to solve this crisis.
@@BlutoRaj It is only a crisis because ‘THEY’ say it is as an excuse to collapse everything and kill off millions of US for the great reset and the NWO elite.
@@GWAYGWAY1 Yep… And the end time is near and earth is flat and 6000 years old🤦🏼♂️
Seriously, I agree with raja that we definitely need some artificial technologies to pull CO2 out of the air. Trees alone are just “too slow”.
@@GWAYGWAY1 Yes, your anguish is warranted. However, there are few who may really want to help for this cause. I plant trees and do my part too. However, we can't match/outrun speed of some greedy who is fast deteriorating this planet.
@@gardenbb LMAO human causes the problem, builds factories, cuts down tree, fk up the environment, creates the crisis and now dare to say trees are too slow?
how many times do we need to replace the PLASTIC filter membrane for 200 MILLION Machines and how much destruction and further pollution can they cause in the next 50 years assuming 200 million machines are perfect so no broken parts, no maintenance is required, no electricity is needed so no coal is burned?
Tree is not the problem, man-made issue does.
create a bacteria that can eat all carbon that includes all life
What about the life efficiency of those machines? I can't imagine one running for 50 years without issues, probably need to replace the PLASTIC filter membrane every year or even faster degrading due to the amount of work (filtering) for a short period of time. What about the area of contact? the only way for it to filter air is by air moving through the membrane so if the area of contact is minimal despite how good its, it cant suck air in like a vacuum so not efficient (debatable? would you rather have a stair that can fit 1000 people but requires people to walk up slowly or an elevator that runs super fast but can only fit 1 at a time and sometimes break?), ++++ electricity +++ coal burn to create electricity + maintenance + ...........
- Tree have been on earth for millions of years and doing their job perfectly until humans come and destroy mother nature. Tree might not work as well as the machine but it does have a larger area of contact, free to grow, naturally friendly, green energy, timber, and last forever (debatable? tree does grow itself without the need of humans).
- Do you think half a billion trees is a lot? think! we have 7.9 billion people on earth, only if each of us donates 6 cents to plant a tree (to grow 500m trees), I bet in the next 50 years we would have enough trees not only for our generation but the future of future generations as well.
Tree is not the problem, man-made issue does.
In the world of trash recycling, we create more trash to recycle more trash thus no trash is recycled.
agreed, we have huge desert's ,and we have the know how to green them all,we can plant 20 billion trees and amend the environment of desert so that eventually the trees growing there wont need any input, this project is just another "great idea" to help the environment while destroying it, like wind farms, not to mention the cost on the environment in manufacturing and trashing these ugly monstrosities, i don't believe in HICC (human induced climate change) but i am all for environmental improvement, mainstream hicc has mostly produced solutions that hurt the environment and destroy peoples way of life
Dramatic situation and still without quick solution..
Please ignore the man behind the curtain.
ဘယ်လောက်ဘဲ co2ကို စုပ်ယူနိုင်တယ်ပြောပြော သဘာဝရဲ့ လက်ဆောင်ဖြစ်တဲ့ သစ်ပင်တွေကသာအကောင်းဆုံးပါ❤❤
This is much needed
lets take it globally
every industry on earth must have this
government should adapt this in cities and towns initially going further people will afford
advantage :its not massive in size
Thank goodness you don't make any law's
Because this is dumb
Does. The. Polymer degrade. Over. Time and. If. So. Will. It. Release. The. Carbon. It. Has. Captured. Back. Into. The. Atmosphere
the carbon is being rid after the filters are saturated
basically Modular Carbon Capture, and we know carbon capture doesn't work
Will they breathe out Oxygen? I find that more important.
S0 you are saying a gal of gas 128 Oz or 8 lbs produces 20 lbs of CO2? That is impressive...how exactly is that accomplished? This video is all over the place. First CO2 is needed because it is indeed plant food then you want to zero it out or produce zero CO2. Smdh
The issue is you are only looking at the carbon and hydrogen weight you must add the weight of the oxygen to the reactants, then the mass balance is easy to understand. As another poster stated, an artificial tree would not only capture CO2 but break it down to carbon and O2. Solid carbon would be easy to transport and store. The O2 could be used/sold for commercial use or simply released to the atmosphere, as that is where it came from originally. As for CO2 reduction, I believe the group think is to reverse the CO2 percentage in atmosphere to preindustrial levels, then roll onto a zero net CO2 system.
Thank you for sharing this with us 🙋🏼♀️💞
The important thing about this technology is it doesn't require much power at all, it collects the CO2 out of the air blown by the wind and every hour or so dips the "leaves" in water to extract the CO2 which goes into canisters. This makes the "trees" much cheaper to make and operate than Climeworks or Carbon Engineering which use fans to suck in air before a huge amount of processing to extract the CO2. So it could be a really viable solution. The issue is what happens to the CO2 afterwards. Carbon Engineering sells its CO2 to oil companies to extract more oil from old fields which is not really a climate solution. Climeworks buries its CO2 deep underground in Iceland permanently, working together with Carbfix and supported by the EU. I'm hoping Klaus Lackner and his Mechanical Trees take the second option, or something close to it.
I can't seem to find a material that absorbs CO2 and releases it again in water. I would like to reproduce this experiment if it is as simple as stated in the video. Do you know of what they talk of?
@DavoRavo I can't see my reply so here's another - It's "sorbent-impregnated polypropylene. The sorbent - an ion exchange resin called Dowex marathon A."
@@ExtraDryingTime Thank you for your reply. Seems as though these processes result in the formation of a three-dimensional network structure with specific ion exchange sites. However the ion exchange site are obviously not specific to CO2 but a general electric field attraction. There must be alternative materials to do this. As I looked up Dowex marathon A and its a little expensive and hard to make. For mass production I would like to look into other ion exchange materials. Here are some I found: montmorillonite, zeolites and chelating Agents. I would have to test these materials over the next coming year. I'll update you if I have further information. Please let me know if you come across anything.
Absolutely very interesting topic of discussion. As we see the public at large doesn't comprehend the emissions from like automobiles.
These machines are just starving trees of carbon BAN ELECTRIC CARS NOW!!!!
All I want to know is the amount of carbon produced to build and transform and eventually move them to landfill, compared to the carbon they clean.
Using technologies like this will encourage people to produce even more emissions/pollutants, driving up costs and potentially making the planet worse off.
planting half a billion trees around the world sounds rather trivial. But I guess there's no taxation involved in this.
Save Our Planet
I really liked this innovation, but let's look on the other side,
C02 is a mixture of two elements of which carbon mixes one atom and oxygen two,
That means we will be losing one molecule of oxygen from here that planting trees which splits co2 to oxygen
It would help, if not for the excessive expense. however the carbon-cycle that is occurring, is far larger, than of humans' doing, & we need to pull out the co2, a lot faster than 50 more years.
The problem aint gone take care of itself so you gotta start somewhere might as well gone head and start here . And yeah , plant some trees around the machine too ...
What a joke
Terrible
Why cant the fabrics/industry lead their polluted air into some spherebubbles in some way - and have these aircleaner-machines together with the pollution inside, instead of cleaning (all) the air outside?
DANG! 😬 I AM NOT IMPRESSED! 🥵
The Algea based Systems that absorb Co² look so much better than this! 😅
Sorry Klaus but you failed! 🤨
I am a bit skeptical I have been offered the whole picture. You mentioned very little about the CO2 after capture. Possible fuel options is vague and doesn't include the processing and possible storage implications of such a process. You also failed to talk about the use of fossil fuels in the plastic based absorption sheets. Was the manufacturing CO2 offsets included in the net zero or net negative calculations. It is fun to create a video of an exciting project, but as you put at the end it unlikely to see massive roll out. I think a more technical approach would offer greater impact for those thinking of investing or repeating the initial research. Unless of course the object of this video was entertainment and wide spread cultural changes.
So, 100 million of these contraptions, or 500 billion trees, I know which I'd prefer. And what about fabrication, maintenence costs, personell costs.
Would be better if the carbon could be used as graphene or carbon fibre to replace plastic
thanks you for sharing information with us and for this idea we can try to reduce a air pollution problem.
How much does one of his artificial trees cost? This is a great investment opportunity. Let him put his trees on the market, for many people would buy them!
Hello, does anyone know exactly where this takes place because I'm trying to do a science project but I need where this is.
Right. As if Mother Nature doesn’t know how to fix itself 🙄
Just mandate and regulate, why is that so hard?
Leave the CO2 for the plants
BAN ELECTRIC CARS NOW....STOP STARVING TREES OF CARBON
Thanks.
What is the cost of this 1 tree
If they work, why aren’t they put on factory or power plant smoke stacks. Do the put out oxygen ?
I do not want this. The world needs more CO2 for more plant life. Not less plant life.
he needs to make it affordable for individuals, many people would buy.
The best solution would be to tackle c02 at source before emissions, meaning that you'll have to find a way of earlier conversion of co2 to low carbon before emissions.
Moreover, why is synthetic fuel not used even though discovered round 70 years ago?
Albert Speer was a believer in synthetic fuel...
I dont think its possible to curb emissions
The money is not going out there for those.
They still want to pocket the cash and live like chapo.
Chapo is now telling investors buy gold out there since his investment are not getting the returns they used to get.
It's an exciting idea... But *only* 200 million of these devices are required? Even if they cost $10 (USD) that would never happen. Hopefully we're still early on in the s-curve of this technology, and multiple factors of efficiency can still be gained. Then this could become a critical piece of reducing the pollution we've caused. I just hope the global society doesn't use technologies like this as a crutch to prevent stopping the activities that are killing us in many ways. Not just climate.
Even if its cost $100 where is the problem? Every industrialised nation will need to plant a number of them based on C02 produced per year, I think this is reasonable and fair.
I thought about building something like this but do not have the education to do it, I'm glad to see someone else doing it
What's wrong with God's Trees?
The amazing information. love you creater.
We will get a different ' tree' to produce oxygen.
I thought this was Microalgae - what a waste
to expensive but one way more to save the world.
So the answer to excess carbon is to use heavy industry to produce 200M of these units with a bunch of plastic and steel? How much carbon goes into the production of one of these (ie: when do these offset the carbon it took to produce them) and how long could they even be in service? Trees help eco systems, they help the soil, they help reduce temperatures like heat islands in cities, they are self replicating and easy to clone. I would rather see 500M trees added to the world than 200M steel and plastic structures added.
Yep.
A woods does this more effectively
@anonymousone6075 they’re a silly childish idea typical of the interbreeding in the political class
Really is sad, isn't it?
Almost seems that some are soulless.
@@vvvvxxxx9999 most things that come from the governments across the world are soulless … we need to evolve to realise we dont need governments we need to take responsibility for instance i am just one person and have planted over 1000 oaks and over 50 fruit trees i plan to learn how to graft fruit trees onto root stocks and plant them in hedgerows everywhere to provide fruit for free for people as a little hobby imagine if we had this as a hobby the world would change over night …
Why look for mechanical solutions when all that needs to be done is plant more trees, not cut down the one's we currently have AND put less of these into place. Everything is about money in some way or the other.
But, its still good to see people thinking of ways to save the planet
Trees take up a lot of water . And there's forest fires
500 billion trees dood thats alot of trees bruh
We need to text pollution
4:40 check the math on that. I don't see how 1 gallon of gas weighs 6 pounds - there is NO WAY the burnt gallon of gas carbon residue can weigh 20 lbs - I doubt if it would be 2 lbs ~ maybe .02 lbs
Oxygen is heavy bruh
This is beyond stupid. Make a mechanical treeeeee?!?! That makes co2 to build ??? I think tree's do a pretty good job how about planting some instead. Oooh right the professor has to spend the grant money I get it now ...what it is , it's a load of twoddle .......yeah nice
Can they develop the artificial tree to the level of replace 10K or 20K real ones?
keep dreaming
Very interesting exploration and I'm interested in installing one. Governments across the globe should come forward to make this available to people to install on roof tops along with solar panels. How may I get one installation panel and how much would it cost me?
bhai pehli baat ye costly hoga or koi mtlb nhi h isko lgane ka natural trees are the best
This is basically about how we get energy. The solution is not to remove the pollution this makes but to get/produce energy without making CO2 in the first place. That is what Tesla is doing. Nonetheless; it would be very good if we could also remove as much CO2 from the atmosphere as we can in the short turn. By that I mean the next several decades.
An Australian professor has debunked this already
andrew glikson?
nice!
Pre purchase an artificial tree today and receive a free plastic squirrel
PRICE?
It's a cool idea, but I feel bad for the guy who is championing his technology. But I don't like it as a solution. It's like someone saying they're quitting smoking by switching to vaping. It's still a nicotine addiction that needs to be fixed, AKA, It's still society's CO2 addiction that needs to be fixed.
this is a good idea however is incomplete. because this should be designed as modules to add to all the industry, so the gases are captured directly and make those polluting corporations pay directly for their own pollution, so they have a direct incentive to optimize their processes. then complement with these artificial trees on the top of buildings or on those billionaires skyscrapers that are empty.
This is a joke, right?
instead of investing huge amount of money in research it is better to plan tree... it will protect the word.
The solution wont be easy for example solar energy is green energy but the toxic waste to produce the solar panel can create 2 to 5 times more emission. The calculation probably around the cost for electricity to run the machine and the cost for the chemical panel, and the question is around wether that cost is less or more than the benefit of the artificial tree.
Please, do you realise plants thrives on CO2 ?
And junkies on heroin... But too much of a good thing is bad... SMH...
Please. Do you know how damaging trolling the internet with feigned bad acting really is? SERIOUSLY...
I think it's sad that time and time again, we hear of these great little innovations - and then they seem to lose traction, vanish from the limelight.
Where do they go?
Why do I not have one in my nearest town already?
And the same goes for these breakthroughs in solar and wind energy, great breakthroughs in some cases. But they seem to get put to one side while less efficient, conventional models continue to be installed.
Why do we not move on?
There was a calculation that if a wave energy collecting boom was placed around Scottish waters - that would be more than enough to supply the UK's needs. That was a suggestion made decades ago, but where is it?
We 'still' have fossil fuel fired power stations here in the British Isles, that are put into action when there is an extreme in weather. The government is funding a huge mine in a National Park - in order to extract 20 year's supply of oil and gas.
What on Earth does the government think it's doing?
It was telling the world it would go 'net zero' by 20 year's time, so already it has broken that promise and failing to find and fund decent alternatives, continuing to put big money into fossil fuels instead.
So I don't expect to see these devices fitted in the numbers we need and reversing climate change to acceptable levels in my son's lifetime (let alone the rest of mine).
Most people looking for investors pocket the money and never produce anything?
Great
Until the next volcano erupts and then that math is all over.
Please ignore the pollution of volcanoes. Woke idiots, greedy industries, and corrupt politicians can not control volcanoes. So their pollution does not count.
we dont need all this goofy technology stop tearing down the forests! this stuff is actually scary to me! having humans developing technology to manipulate the weather on purpose
No can do bro. Too difficult. We gotta build robo-trees.
how or where can we get this resin plastic ?
Amazing, we worry about food for the growing populations of the world "not" acknowledging that carbon was an thousand times "higher" during the Jurassic period.
PLANTS LOVE CARBON.....dhua!!! 🏹🤠👍
You are not allowed to say that. For the woke, carbon is worse than cyanide.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for this great information !
Really could be a game changer in climate change
Exactly what climate change are you speaking about? You and others speak about it as though it's settled science when its not.
It is settled for sure. Just like cars created the previous era of global warming. Don't you remember? Just think how easy the people of earth can stop or reverse a global warming or a global ice age. Easy as the proverbial pie.
Wish few ultra rich people fund this 2 million artificial trees.
When I was fortunate, I was helping this beautiful planet to be original again . Green, and human and animals , - and ALL the Nature in balance again like thousands years ago . In Saoudi Arabia is very good work since a few years; there are huge forests in the deserts! With great technical water installations ! I am so thankful it bothers the rich people there . Respect ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️THANKS SAOUDI ARABIA Greets 🇳🇱the Netherlands.
Look at desert forests in Saoudi Arabia! That’s great !
We need more CO2 in the atmosphere not less!
Dood what ?
Carbon removal is an emotional issue, not a scientific issue. Sheeple will believe every word that a morally bankrupt washed up has been drugged movie star has to say about the climate. But they will not do the maths.
how much does one cost? can you rent it ?
