… but this one’s a little odd.\u00a0 Tech Insider<\/strong><\/em><\/a> reports on sequestering soot on paper.<\/p>\n

[Anirudh] Sharma built a demo device that can pull soot from a burning candle and accumulate it in a modified syringe, which is then used to fill a modified HP inkjet cartridge with a mixture of the soot, vodka, and olive oil. When the cartridge is integrated with an Arduino ink shield<\/a>, this decidedly low-tech ink can be used to print at a 96 dpi resolution. …<\/p>\n

Sharma estimates a 4-year-old diesel engine could produce enough carbon to fill an HP cartridge within 60 minutes. A chimney would take only 10 minutes approximately.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I’m seeing contraptions for positioning this device at the top of chimneys all over Minnesota.\u00a0 From Anirudh Sharma’s website<\/a> comes this charming bit:<\/p>\n

I was once day dreaming about the awesome days we spent back in Bikaner, a small city in the west of Rajasthan. It reminded me of the heat, travelling in sweat inducing autorickshaws while we used to do our experiments with building our Multi-touch table with low tech techniques. The month of June there was full of sweat, with unburnt smoke rising from unending tur-tur-ing of autorickshaws blackening our skin.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I can imagine that, having putted around Pune, India one day a few years back.<\/p>\n

In all fairness, they are not positioning this as a source of sequestration.\u00a0 Sharma says he was just having fun.<\/p>\n
