![]() ![]() ![]() “A bunch of capital costs associated with the way you move the water, and the permitting, all that could already be taken care of.” “With desalination plants, you’re already pumping all the water, so why not co-locate there?” Varanasi says. There, the carbon dioxide removal could be a simple add-on to existing processes, which already return vast amounts of water to the sea, and it would not require consumables like chemical additives or membranes. “This system is scalable so that we could integrate it potentially into existing processes that are already processing ocean water or in contact with ocean water,” Varanasi says. Initially at least, the idea would be to couple such systems with existing or planned infrastructure that already processes seawater, such as desalination plants. “You’ll run out of markets for all the products you produce, so no matter what, a significant amount of the captured CO 2 will need to be buried underground.” “You can certainly consider using the captured CO 2 as a feedstock for chemicals or materials production, but you’re not going to be able to use all of it as a feedstock,” says Hatton. For example, it can be buried in deep geologic formations under the sea floor, or it can be chemically converted into a compound like ethanol, which can be used as a transportation fuel, or into other specialty chemicals. Once the carbon dioxide is removed from the water, it still needs to be disposed of, as with other carbon removal processes. ![]() But the reinjection might be done in some cases in places such as fish farms, which tend to acidify the water, so this could be a way of helping to counter that effect. “We’re not going to be able to treat the entire planet’s emissions,” Varanasi says. The reinjection of alkaline water could be done through dispersed outlets or far offshore to avoid a local spike of alkalinity that could disrupt ecosystems, they say. This removal of carbon dioxide and reinjection of alkaline water could slowly start to reverse, at least locally, the acidification of the oceans that has been caused by carbon dioxide buildup, which in turn has threatened coral reefs and shellfish, says Varanasi, a professor of mechanical engineering. ![]() Periodically, the roles of the two cells are reversed once one set of electrodes is depleted of protons (during acidification) and the other has been regenerated during alkalization. Then, the water is fed to a second set of cells with a reversed voltage, to recover the protons and turn the acidic water back to alkaline before releasing it back to the sea. The process is cyclic: It first acidifies the water to convert dissolved inorganic bicarbonates to molecular carbon dioxide, which is collected as a gas under vacuum. Reactive electrodes are used to release protons to the seawater fed to the cells, driving the release of the dissolved carbon dioxide from the water. The team came up with a reversible process consisting of membrane-free electrochemical cells. “We wanted to avoid the need for introducing chemicals to the anode and cathode half cells and to avoid the use of membranes if at all possible,” he says. Hatton, who is the Ralph Landau Professor of Chemical Engineering, notes that the membranes are expensive, and chemicals are required to drive the overall electrode reactions at either end of the stack, adding further to the expense and complexity of the processes. This converts bicarbonates in the water to molecules of CO 2, which can then be removed under vacuum. The existing methods for removing carbon dioxide from seawater apply a voltage across a stack of membranes to acidify a feed stream by water splitting. Alan Hatton and Kripa Varanasi, postdoc Seoni Kim, and graduate students Michael Nitzsche, Simon Rufer, and Jack Lake. The findings were reported this week in the journal Energy and Environmental Science, in a paper by MIT professors T. Now, a team of researchers at MIT says they may have found the key to a truly efficient and inexpensive removal mechanism. But, like air capture systems, the idea has not yet led to any widespread use, though there are a few companies attempting to enter this area. Recently, the possibility of removing carbon dioxide directly from ocean water has emerged as another promising possibility for mitigating CO 2 emissions, one that could potentially someday even lead to overall net negative emissions. Meanwhile, the world’s number one “sink” for carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is the ocean, which soaks up some 30 to 40 percent of all of the gas produced by human activities. As carbon dioxide continues to build up in the Earth’s atmosphere, research teams around the world have spent years seeking ways to remove the gas efficiently from the air. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() You should read the app description again. How disappointing! The rest of the features are just the same as anyone you can get for free. Turned out it was only for exporting the collage. So I took a chance and bought the unlock. I tried to look up about that icon, not much info. Then there is an icon that I thought it’s for that function (because it looked like it) but when I clicked on it, it said I had to pay to unlock. I first downloaded this app, it said we can create our own collage, which misunderstood it as our own layout. I was looking for a collage app that is as powerful as Fuzel, which would all us to totally customize the layout, (for example, cut/add layout lines or move the lines diagonally). Maybe when the app becomes more popular and it gets many users. Unfortunately this will not happen in the near future. A lot of work is necessary to program this function now. I want to be honest and admit that the app was not designed for this feature from the beginning. I like how the developer responds to these reviews, so I ask: Can we expect this feature, common to many collage apps, to be available soon in your Photo Collage app? If so, then you’re the one for me! If not, I’ll still use this when I don’t have need or desire to adjust cell sizes. Mine looked great! However, for my use, one feature was missing-the ability to move borders left/ right or up/down to resize the cells of the collage. I wanted a high-resolution image for printing, and I *love* this app’s ability to create high-quality collages for very specific dimensions. Recently I downloaded and tried more than a dozen collage apps for a project I was undertaking. Great Collage Maker with One Feature Wanting 200 additional layouts and 85 additional background images can be conveniently unlocked via in-app purchases. This app offers 100 collage layouts and 15 background images free of charge. This feature gives you even more freedom in designing your creative photo collages. This collage app allows you to save the finished image, send it via email, print it out or share it with others.edĪs well as being able to move and enlarge/reduce images, this app also lets you freely rotate them. The output format is defined in one of the following four units: pixels, millimeters, centimeters, inches Set your required image size, choose from one of 300 collage layouts, place your images on it, and print. This app creates photo collages in the exact size that you want!ĭo you need a photo collage in size 2560 x 1440 pixels for a video platform, or 1200 x 1200 pixels for a social network?

French automotive engineer Louis Réard introduced a design he named the "Bikini", adopting the name from the Bikini Atoll in the Pacific Ocean, which was the colonial name the Germans gave to the atoll, borrowed from the Marshallese name for the island, Pikinni. ![]() Like swimsuits of the era, it covered the wearer's belly button, and it failed to attract much attention. In May 1946, Parisian fashion designer Jacques Heim released a two-piece swimsuit design that he named the Atome ('Atom') and advertised as "the smallest swimsuit in the world". Operation Crossroads was a nuclear test series at the Bikini Atoll, and the inspiration for the naming of two French swimsuit designs at the time, including the bikini. While the two-piece swimsuit as a design existed in classical antiquity, the modern design first attracted public notice in Paris on July 5, 1946. By the early 2000s, bikinis had become a US$811 million business annually, and boosted spin off services such as bikini waxing and sun tanning. The bikini has gradually gained wide acceptance in Western society. Similarly, a variety of men's and women's underwear types are described as bikini underwear. A man's single piece brief swimsuit may also be called a bikini or "bikini brief", particularly if it has slimmer sides. There are a number of modern stylistic variations of the design used for marketing purposes and as industry classifications, including monokini, microkini, tankini, trikini, pubikini, skirtini, thong, and g-string. By the late 20th century, it was widely used as sportswear in beach volleyball and bodybuilding. The minimalist bikini design became common in most Western countries by the mid-1960s as both swimwear and underwear. The bikini gained increased exposure and acceptance as film stars like Brigitte Bardot, Raquel Welch, and Ursula Andress wore it and were photographed on public beaches and seen in film. Despite this backlash, however, the bikini still sold well throughout the mid to late 20th century. The bikini also faced criticism from some feminists, who reviled it as a garment designed to suit men's tastes, and not those of women. In many countries, the design was banned from beaches and other public places: in 1949, France banned the bikini from being worn on its coastlines Germany banned the bikini from public swimming pools until the 1970s, and some communist groups condemned the bikini as a "capitalist decadence". ĭue to its revealing design, the bikini was once considered controversial, facing opposition from a number of groups and being accepted only very slowly by the general public. The modern bikini swimsuit was introduced by French clothing designer Louis Réard in July 1946, and was named after the Bikini Atoll, where the first public test of a nuclear bomb had taken place four days before. Bikini bottoms covering about half the buttocks may be described as "Brazilian-cut". The size of the top and bottom can vary, from bikinis that offer full coverage of the breasts, pelvis, and buttocks, to more revealing designs with a thong or G-string bottom that covers only the mons pubis, but exposes the buttocks, and a top that covers only the areolae. ![]() A woman wearing a black bikini at a beach in 2009Ī bikini is a two-piece swimsuit primarily worn by girls and women that features one piece on top that covers the breasts, and a second piece on the bottom: the front covering the pelvis but usually exposing the navel, and the back generally covering the intergluteal cleft and a little, some, or all of the buttocks.
