    I have a bachelors in chemical engineering, the energy balance on these devices never works out favourably. As soon as you scale up to any meaningful impact on GHGs, you get power inputs on the scale of entire countries.

    If you’d like to do a proper literature review instead of daydreaming, I’d be happy to look it over

      Like power output of switzerland or china?

      If it were powered by nuclear energy, for example, then would they would have utility? Or you are saying money is better spent elsewhere full stop?
