Not a theory. Alligators are amphibians. [quote] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Methanogenesis, during which the most ancient lines of bacteria on earth acquire energy for life, is exothermic. CO2 + 4 H2 = CH4 + 2 H2O + energy Let's approach it as a falsifiable theory. There are multiple ways to apply thermodynamics to calculate how much energy is released. But the simplest approach is to view it as a transformation of fuels, both of which can release energy upon combustion: Hydrogen versus methane. Using the same oxidant (O2) for both: H2 + 1/2 O2 = H2O + 286 kJ/mol CH4 + 2 O2 = CO2 + 2 H2O + 890 kJ/mol Molecule per molecule, more energy is released from oxidation of methane than from oxidation of hydrogen. About three times as much. Methanogenesis is not molecule per molecule. 4 molecules of hydrogen are oxidized to yield one molecule of methane. (4x 286 kJ/mol) CO2 + 4 H2 = CH4 + 2 H2O + 254 kJ/mol (exothermic) 4 x 286 kJ/mol (reactant fuel energy content) = 1144 kJ/mol released from hydrogen oxidation But methane isn't being oxidized and removed. Carbon dioxide is being chemically reduced to generate methane. (890 kJ/mol CONSUMED, not released.) Without invoking thermodynamics, think of a fuel processing facility that consumes four molecules of hydrogen to generate just one molecule of methane. Then do the math and see if it is a good investment. Or consider the converse. If this is NOT an exothermic reaction, someone can get a Nobel prize by discovering how methanogens survive, as it has been long believed that this is their sole source of energy. Of course, no oxygen gas is involved in methanogenesis. To get the exact number you have to apply the thermodynamics knowing the energies of all products and reactants in their "standard states". It is still exothermic, but not exactly 254 kJ/mol. It is more intuitively obvious if one thinks of the energy content of hydrogen fuel on one side of the equation and the methane fuel on the other. Methanogenic bacteria are autotrophic, meaning they take inorganic carbon and transform it to organic carbon (chemically oxidized versus chemically reduced C). Inorganic carbon includes carbon dioxide, bicarbonate, carbonate, and carbon monoxide. Organic carbon includes the other 100,000 compounds of carbon, in chemically reduced form, that comprise what is studied in the field of "organic" chemistry. Microbial methanogenesis is quite different than "coal gasification", which South Africa used widely after their oil imports were curtailed. "Coal gasification" uses organic carbon (coal) as the carbon source from which to generate methane. Professor Parrot asserts : "You are not a chemist. You deny chemistry." Science may not be consensus, but there are a whole lot of people who ONLY know me as a chemist. They cite my chemistry research and discoveries. But I could never fool a true scientific genius.

Methanogenesis is a biochemical process during which bacteria combine hydrogen with carbon dioxide to produce methane. It goes back at least 4000 million years to a time when the earth's crust was constantly emitting hydrogen. Methanogenesis made a major contribution to climate change, facilitating beneficial global warming during the first 1000 million years or so of evolution. 4000 million years ago, the earth's crust frequently spewed out hydrogen and carbon dioxide. The two reactants were widely available. If oxygen had been around, the most ancient line of bacteria would probably have been hydrogen oxidizers using oxygen as oxidant. But there was no oxygen. Very few chemical oxidants of any kind, in fact. But carbon dioxide can act as a very weak oxidant for a strong enough reductant, such as hydrogen. CO2 + 4 H2 = CH4 + 2 H2O + biochemical energy. Methanogens transformed carbon dioxide, a relatively weak greenhouse gas, into methane, which has 20-30 times more global warming potential. 4000 million years ago, the sun was much less luminous than it is today. It wasn't bright enough to heat a planet much further from the sun than venus. Nearly all the liquid water at the surface was frozen. But through the action of methanogenic bacteria, atmospheric concentrations of methane increased and increased, facilitating enough warming to melt some seas along the equator. This enabled life to thrive. The sun is much more luminous today. We want to minimize methane emissions now. His second rate sidekick says it is endothermic. Perhaps some knowledge of thermodynamics can be displayed to provide a number. Or at least provide a falsifiable theory that leads to the endothermic conclusion. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Im a BM wrote: Then Professor Parrot says: The reaction you gave is not exothermic.

"You ignore thermodynamics." "You deny thermodynamics." - Parrot Boy Trolls on this website often invoke "thermodynamics" as the sacrosanct authority for their refusal to acknowledge the reality of anthropogenic climate change. People who actually study thermodynamics, even at an introductory college chemistry course level, know how to apply thermodynamics. For example, the reaction for methanogenesis: CO2 + 4 H2 = CH4 + 2 H2O An exam question might ask them to calculate exactly how much energy is released by this exothermic reaction. They should know how to do it and get the correct answer if they hope to pass the class. Parrot Boy says that this is an endothermic reaction. An unsupported contrarian assertion. An unsupportable contrarian assertion. To anyone who concludes that this is NOT an exothermic reaction: You ignore thermodynamics. To anyone who stubbornly insists that this reaction is endothermic. You deny thermodynamics. It appears that you don't even know what thermodynamics is. |

RE: How bacteria changed the climate06-03-2023 07:56 | |
Im a BM★★★★☆ (1834) |
When life on earth began, more than 4000 million years ago, most of the surface was inhospitable for life. Too cold for liquid water. But there were warm spots where geothermal water came up to the surface. With high concentrations of hydrogen and carbon dioxide, these were the ideal habitat for methanogens. After methanogens generated enough methane to warm the atmosphere a bit, surface water began to melt along the equator. With open water at the surface, photosynthesis became possible. The first photosynthetic bacteria most likely exploited hydrogen as reductant. They could get very high yield from photosynthesis. No energy was wasted to split water in order to generate hydrogen, and by product oxygen. Instead, anoxygenic photosynthesis using hydrogen produces water as by product. The next to come along used hydrogen sulfide as reductant for photosynthesis. They produced sulfate as by product. This did not produce nearly as high a yield as acquired by photosynthetic bacteria using hydrogen as reductant, given the same amount of sunlight. When both hydrogen and hydrogen sulfide were present, the hydrogen oxidizers out competed the sulfur oxidizers. The consumption of hydrogen sulfide by photosynthetic bacteria had two important consequences. It removed hydrogen sulfide from the atmosphere. And it generated sulfate which could be used as chemical oxidant. As far as changing the climate goes, it was the removal of hydrogen sulfide that mattered most. Hydrogen sulfide contributes to "global dimming". It blocks incoming sunlight, preventing it from reaching the surface to produce heat. By removing hydrogen sulfide through anoxygenic photosynthesis, bacteria reduced the global dimming effect. More sunlight could reach the ground to warm the surface. Methanogenic bacteria enhanced global warming by adding methane to the atmosphere to act as a greenhouse gas. Photosynthetic bacteria enhanced global warming by removing hydrogen sulfide from the atmosphere, reducing its contribution to global dimming. In the period between 4000 and about 3000 million years ago, this caused major climate change that enhanced the capacity of the earth to support life. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [quote]Im a BM wrote: Methanogenesis is a biochemical process during which bacteria combine hydrogen with carbon dioxide to produce methane.

While I don't care for hexavalent chromium I also don't like Carbon tetrachloride. Hexavalent chromium is for people who actually like people suffering. Carbon tetrachloride and other such compounds are for people who don't like eating. Crops require a functional ozone layer. And now who wants to scratch my hairy balls? |

I am handicapped by brainwashing, and can't contribute much to a brainstorming session that includes more than one true scientific genius. A true warmazombie, my brainwashing has constrained what I can imagine about the age of the ozone layer. They indoctrinated me to believe that it first began to form very minimally about 600 million years ago. They exploited my gullibility to make me believe that by 500 million years ago, a robust enough ozone layer had established to enable photosynthesis to rise out of the sea and colonize the land without UV damage and death. They pushed this myth about some "Cambrian explosion" about 540 million years ago, when all the lines of oxygen-consuming multicellular animals rose at once. They said that before this, there wasn't enough oxygen in sea water to support it. How do they know? Were they there? They claimed that photosynthesis first evolved 4000 million years ago, but that the kind of photosynthesis that produces oxygen didn't evolve until about 3000 million years ago. Supposedly, it took about 2000 million years of oxygenic photosynthesis to rust away all the ferrous iron in the land and sea before any free oxygen could exist at higher than negligible concentrations in the atmosphere. The claim about very high concentrations of hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, and methane in the primordial atmosphere is consistent with what I was taught. What's up with hydrogen sulfide, anyway? They say that when it is emitted to the atmosphere, it lasts less than 24 hours before it is oxidized to sun-blocking aerosol SOx. Photooxidation of sulfide to sulfate, sulfite, SO2, SO3, etc., even with the UV shielding of the ozone layer. As I said, I may just be jealous. It's too late for me to get rid of this meaningless PhD and unlearn all the brainwashing I was subjected to during my decades in the Ivory Tower. But it is NOT too late for you.

They were nice people and educated Europe. They helped to create many countries. For some reason not everyone liked Vikings. Time has changed. The Knights Templar was Europe's answer to those nice Vikings. And then the King of France decided he should rule France and not the Pope. Then Friday the 13th became a bad day in history when the leaders of the Knights Templar were arrested for treason by the King of France. Time changed and people went on living. And today, what will allow people to go on living? There are economies to consider as well as a population that is expected to continue increasing. 10 Billion people by 2050 with an increase of 100 million in the U.S. What to do? When the Vikings educated Europeans, that was after the Dark Ages Cool Period. This brings up an interesting question. Did the Vikings rise to power because Norway warmed before Europe did? This has to do with the Gulf Stream and how it warms Europe. Something people should know but don't. A lot of Europe is further north than New York city and yet has a better climate. And we're back to did Norway warm before Europe which is what allowed for the Vikings to occupy about 1/2 of present day Europe? |

Have you considered teaming up with Swan to make a Quantum-Bessler-Entanglement-Wheel? You could make free energy forever at 10 million times the speed of Lite Beer in a vacuum cleaner.
