I am an engineer not a chemist but dredging up school chemistry from the
1950's tell me that a mole of methane weighs 16 grams so I think that a
mmole weighs 16 milligrams and 4.2 mmole weighs 67 milligrams. This is
not much to store in one gram of coffee grounds. We need to check on
how much methane is held in the Arctic and present world coffee production
Before you publish anything check with a proper chemist and make sure
that M for mega has not got muddled with m for milli.
This reminds me of the neutrino bomb scare. A nuclear bomb using
neutrinos would have a yield of around a pico tonne of TNT. People
could be dropping them on you without you evne being aware of the attack.

Hi all,
Has anyone had a chance to read this paper published in
Nanotechnology? If so, does anyone have thoughts on the feasibility of
this idea?
"Activated carbon derived from waste coffee grounds for stable methane
storage"
Link to paper: http://iopscience.iop.org/0957-4484/26/38/385602/article
Any and all thoughts would be appreciated, as always! Thank you!
Best,
Julia
