John and ccs: There are many estimates of available biomass, although not many for CDR (through Biochar, BECCS, etc). A recent one (still not for CDR) that seems to have been well done is in a new WF report at this site (especially its Section 5 and several appendices):

John, Not sure what solar powered process you are talking out, but re CDR and OA, it is possible to generate carbon-negative H2 electrochemically using base minerals (limestone or silicates), seawater, and photovoltaic Vdc *. The neutralization of the acid normally produced at the anode of a
