The Climate Paradox- Introducing my New Book on Amazon Kindle.

Introducing My New Book — THE CLIMATE PARADOX Are we solving climate change, or creating new problems through fragmented solutions? I am pleased to announce the publication of my new book, The Climate Paradox, now available on Amazon. For decades, governments, industries and investors have committed enormous resources to renewable energy, hydrogen, decarbonisation and carbon capture. Yet an important question remains: Are we measuring the complete environmental consequences of our solutions, or merely shifting emissions from one part of the system to another? In The Climate Paradox, I examine: • The hidden carbon footprint of renewable energy infrastructure. • Hydrogen's opportunities, limitations, and appropriate applications. • The economic and environmental challenges of carbon capture and sequestration. • Why lifecycle assessment and carbon accounting are essential. • The need to replace fragmented approaches with integrated energy solutions. The book also introduces the philosophy behind Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT), being developed by Clean Energy and Water Technologies Pty Ltd (CEWT). Every carbon atom must be accounted for. Every energy input must be measured. Every solution must be assessed across its complete lifecycle. My central message is simple: Climate solutions must be judged by measurable outcomes, not slogans. 📖 The Climate Paradox — by Dharma Available on Amazon in Kindle and paperback editions. I welcome thoughtful discussion from engineers, scientists, policymakers, investors and everyone interested in a more rigorous approach to climate change. #TheClimateParadox #ClimateChange #CarbonRecycling #LifeCycleAssessment #CleanEnergy #Hydrogen #Sustainability #CEWT

Beyond Carbon Capture- Recycling Carbon for AI Data Centre Power

Beyond Carbon Capture- Recycling Carbon for AI Data Centre Power Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) — A New Approach to Integrated Energy Infrastructure Topsoe's recent announcement of its involvement in HDF Energy's 250 MW BaseBlue project in Texas highlights a growing market for reliable, lower-carbon power dedicated to AI data centres. The project proposes producing approximately 400 tonnes of blue hydrogen daily from natural gas, with more than 95% CO₂ capture during hydrogen production. But an important question remains: Why only capture carbon when we can also recycle it? At Clean Energy and Water Technologies Pty Ltd (CEWT), we are developing Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT), an integrated approach that combines: • Hydrogen-rich syngas production from natural gas. • CO₂ recovery and conversion into recycled synthetic natural gas (RSNG) through methanation with renewable hydrogen. • Reliable, dedicated power generation for AI data centres. • Recovery of useful thermal energy for cooling and heating. Our proposed 20 MW CRT trigeneration project in Victoria, Australia, aims to demonstrate this integrated approach at commercial scale. Unlike conventional carbon capture and sequestration, CRT seeks to retain recovered carbon as a useful energy carrier through repeated conversion and reuse. The engineering challenge is to demonstrate the carbon balance, hydrogen requirements, energy efficiency and lifecycle economics across the complete process. The future of sustainable data-centre infrastructure should be measured not simply by megawatts generated, but by useful electricity, cooling and heat delivered per unit of primary energy and lifecycle carbon emitted. CEWT is working to translate this integrated concept into commercial reality. “CRT is not a blue-hydrogen technology. It integrates hydrogen-rich syngas, renewable hydrogen and recovered carbon to produce recycled synthetic natural gas, enabling reliable power generation with useful heat recovery.” Carbon is a resource. Hydrogen is an enabler. Integration is the opportunity.

My Book Is Now Available in Kindle and Paperback Editions

God Plays Dice — Two Lights By Dharma Can science and spirituality lead us towards the same fundamental truth? For centuries, science has explored the external universe through observation, experimentation and reason. Spiritual inquiry has explored the inner world through consciousness, awareness and self-realisation. Are these two journeys fundamentally different, or are they two lights illuminating the same reality? My book, God Plays Dice — Two Lights, invites readers to reflect on these questions and explore the relationship between scientific discovery and spiritual understanding. I am pleased to share that the book is now available in Kindle ebook and paperback editions on Amazon. Explore my Amazon Author Page: https://www.amazon.com/author/ahilanraman I welcome readers interested in science, philosophy, consciousness and spirituality to join this exploration. #GodPlaysDice #TwoLights #ScienceAndSpirituality #Consciousness #Philosophy #KindleBooks #Dharma

Why Does Renewable Hydrogen Face a Brick Wall?

Why Does Renewable Hydrogen Face a Brick Wall? Hydrogen is an energy carrier. We must first produce it using energy from another source, then store it, transport it and convert it into useful power. Producing renewable hydrogen is therefore only one part of the challenge. The larger question is: how do we use it economically? Hydrogen-powered vehicles illustrate this difficulty. Honda began leasing its FCX fuel-cell vehicle in 2002, while BMW presented its Hydrogen 7 combustion-engine car in 2006. Yet these early efforts did not establish hydrogen as a mainstream passenger-car fuel. Honda subsequently introduced further fuel-cell models, including the CR-V e in 2024. The technology progressed, but building an affordable fuel supply and refuelling network remained a major challenge. Honda, BMW Why is this transition so difficult? Our existing fuel infrastructure developed over decades. Pipelines, storage facilities, engines and power stations form an extensive industrial system. A new fuel must compete with that entire system. Hydrogen contains considerable energy per kilogram, but its low density makes storage and transport demanding. Carbon offers one possible route around this problem: combine renewable hydrogen with captured CO₂ to produce methane, CH₄. Synthetic methane can use existing natural-gas infrastructure, subject to fuel specifications and equipment requirements. Hydrogen does not need carbon to function as a fuel, but carbon can provide a practical means of carrying it. US Department of Energy, Japan’s Agency for Natural Resources and Energy This brings us to the central issue. Burning methane releases CO₂, while methane escaping before combustion also contributes to warming. The task is therefore to control emissions throughout the system. US Environmental Protection Agency At CEWT, our focus is on recycling carbon within the system: capturing the CO₂ produced during power generation and combining it with renewable hydrogen to regenerate fuel. The aim is to retain carbon in circulation while renewable energy supplies the energy needed to rebuild that fuel. Such an approach could connect renewable electricity with established fuel infrastructure and support power generation when wind and solar output are insufficient. Its practical value, however, depends on the complete balance: conversion losses, carbon-capture performance, methane leakage, water use and cost. Inexpensive renewable electricity alone does not guarantee inexpensive electricity after several conversion steps. Recycling carbon also does not create energy. Energy must enter the system, and some is lost at each stage. Nor does recycling justify continuously adding fresh fossil carbon: any additional carbon must ultimately be accounted for through storage or other verified removal. Even renewable technologies remind us that the transition must work through existing industry. Can we manufacture a solar panel without fossil fuels? Solar manufacturing has relied heavily on fossil-powered supply chains, as the IEA documented in 2022. That dependence can be reduced as manufacturing itself adopts cleaner energy. It demonstrates the scale of the transition, rather than a permanent requirement for fossil fuels. International Energy Agency We should judge energy systems by their measured emissions, reliability and total cost. Where carbon recycling can meet those tests, it deserves serious consideration. Could renewable hydrogen make greater progress by helping us circulate carbon through existing infrastructure? That is the question CEWT seeks to address.
