1 00:00:06,309 --> 00:00:03,669 hi i'm kaido sale i'm interested in 2 00:00:08,710 --> 00:00:06,319 origin life and here's my picture so you 3 00:00:10,709 --> 00:00:08,720 can match me talking today i will talk 4 00:00:13,190 --> 00:00:10,719 about my research about liquid carbon 5 00:00:15,270 --> 00:00:13,200 dioxide and experiments about 6 00:00:18,470 --> 00:00:15,280 dissolution and distribution of 7 00:00:21,029 --> 00:00:18,480 inorganics into liquid co2 8 00:00:24,710 --> 00:00:21,039 to start with i would like to talk about 9 00:00:28,070 --> 00:00:24,720 the liquid state of co2 10 00:00:30,230 --> 00:00:28,080 generally co2 is known to take gas state 11 00:00:31,750 --> 00:00:30,240 and cells form which you use to keep 12 00:00:34,790 --> 00:00:31,760 your food freezing 13 00:00:36,950 --> 00:00:34,800 but if you give enough pressure co2 14 00:00:40,470 --> 00:00:36,960 turns into liquid 15 00:00:43,030 --> 00:00:40,480 this is the phase diagram of co2 and you 16 00:00:47,750 --> 00:00:43,040 can see in what temperature and pressure 17 00:00:52,389 --> 00:00:49,430 this movie on the right is showing 18 00:00:54,389 --> 00:00:52,399 liquid co2 pouring inside the container 19 00:00:57,590 --> 00:00:54,399 this is what it looks like for those who 20 00:01:00,389 --> 00:00:57,600 have not seen liquid phase of co2 before 21 00:01:03,750 --> 00:01:00,399 it is colorless and transparent just 22 00:01:09,350 --> 00:01:05,910 one of the special characteristics of 23 00:01:11,350 --> 00:01:09,360 liquid co2 is its hydrophobicity 24 00:01:12,950 --> 00:01:11,360 it is known to dissolve less than one 25 00:01:15,190 --> 00:01:12,960 percent of water 26 00:01:17,910 --> 00:01:15,200 as a result it forms two layers of 27 00:01:22,390 --> 00:01:17,920 liquid just like oil and water 28 00:01:24,469 --> 00:01:22,400 as it is shown in the photograph here 29 00:01:27,429 --> 00:01:24,479 now some of you might be wondering how 30 00:01:29,990 --> 00:01:27,439 oil-like liquid co2 relate to ocean life 31 00:01:34,230 --> 00:01:30,000 at all so let's move on to where we can 32 00:01:38,950 --> 00:01:36,950 the existence of liquid co2 in natural 33 00:01:41,270 --> 00:01:38,960 is limitedly reported 34 00:01:44,389 --> 00:01:41,280 it was found near hydrosomal vent at 35 00:01:46,230 --> 00:01:44,399 okinotrov mayan arc and one in 36 00:01:48,710 --> 00:01:46,240 norwegian's ocean 37 00:01:50,230 --> 00:01:48,720 the clip from google earth is showing 38 00:01:53,830 --> 00:01:50,240 you the coordinates 39 00:01:59,270 --> 00:01:56,789 next the mechanism of how liquid co2 40 00:02:00,630 --> 00:01:59,280 reservoir is formed is shown as a 41 00:02:02,950 --> 00:02:00,640 diagram 42 00:02:05,510 --> 00:02:02,960 geothermal heat makes fluid mix of 43 00:02:08,309 --> 00:02:05,520 supplied seawater and magma 44 00:02:10,229 --> 00:02:08,319 as the fluid flows upwards the decrease 45 00:02:11,670 --> 00:02:10,239 in temperature and pressure leads to 46 00:02:14,949 --> 00:02:11,680 phase separation 47 00:02:17,430 --> 00:02:14,959 and co2 accumulates under sediment 48 00:02:19,589 --> 00:02:17,440 since liquid co2 is known to possess 49 00:02:22,070 --> 00:02:19,599 unique oil-like features unlike 50 00:02:24,229 --> 00:02:22,080 surrounding seawater-based fluid this 51 00:02:26,710 --> 00:02:24,239 fluid may act as a solvent for 52 00:02:28,229 --> 00:02:26,720 hydrophobic salute which probably 53 00:02:29,510 --> 00:02:28,239 completion different from the 54 00:02:32,229 --> 00:02:29,520 surrounding 55 00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:32,239 however due to lack of observation made 56 00:02:37,670 --> 00:02:35,440 to this underwater co2 reservoir and not 57 00:02:40,550 --> 00:02:37,680 much experimental research conducted 58 00:02:44,710 --> 00:02:40,560 about liquid co2 in natural environment 59 00:02:47,670 --> 00:02:45,670 so 60 00:02:51,110 --> 00:02:47,680 now that i have talked about hydrophobic 61 00:02:52,949 --> 00:02:51,120 nature of liquid co2 and how it's formed 62 00:02:53,990 --> 00:02:52,959 in the subsurface around hydrosome 63 00:02:56,470 --> 00:02:54,000 events 64 00:03:00,390 --> 00:02:56,480 i want to go over how hydrosomal vents 65 00:03:03,190 --> 00:03:00,400 is important to origin of life 66 00:03:05,350 --> 00:03:03,200 hydrosol vent is suggested to be one of 67 00:03:08,070 --> 00:03:05,360 the plausible environments for origin of 68 00:03:10,710 --> 00:03:08,080 life and that is because it supplies 69 00:03:12,630 --> 00:03:10,720 heat continuously and there is water all 70 00:03:13,670 --> 00:03:12,640 around it for chemical reactions to 71 00:03:15,430 --> 00:03:13,680 happen 72 00:03:18,070 --> 00:03:15,440 and those reactions include 73 00:03:20,470 --> 00:03:18,080 electrochemical equilibrium between 74 00:03:22,949 --> 00:03:20,480 thermal fluid sea water through minerals 75 00:03:24,630 --> 00:03:22,959 and also production of organic cir water 76 00:03:27,350 --> 00:03:24,640 rock reactions 77 00:03:28,630 --> 00:03:27,360 however there are problems needed to be 78 00:03:31,750 --> 00:03:28,640 solved 79 00:03:34,390 --> 00:03:31,760 as an example since hydrosomal event is 80 00:03:37,670 --> 00:03:34,400 underwater and everywhere around this 81 00:03:40,229 --> 00:03:37,680 aqueous reactions like condensation is 82 00:03:42,710 --> 00:03:40,239 thermodynamically unstable as well as 83 00:03:45,670 --> 00:03:42,720 other hydrophobic molecules 84 00:03:48,390 --> 00:03:45,680 so we thought what if liquid co2 worked 85 00:03:51,990 --> 00:03:48,400 as a reserve for hydrophobic molecules 86 00:03:57,589 --> 00:03:55,110 interestingly theoretical calculations 87 00:03:59,350 --> 00:03:57,599 suggest the existence of liquid co2 in 88 00:04:02,149 --> 00:03:59,360 hadian ocean 89 00:04:05,429 --> 00:04:02,159 higher concentration of co2 in the early 90 00:04:08,149 --> 00:04:05,439 earth makes this possible to happen 91 00:04:09,429 --> 00:04:08,159 liquid co2 may have a role in elemental 92 00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:09,439 transfer 93 00:04:13,910 --> 00:04:11,920 or is over in the early ocean as it 94 00:04:15,910 --> 00:04:13,920 possessed completely different features 95 00:04:18,390 --> 00:04:15,920 to sea water 96 00:04:20,870 --> 00:04:18,400 but again elemental transfer between 97 00:04:23,990 --> 00:04:20,880 liquid co2 and natural materials focused 98 00:04:26,469 --> 00:04:24,000 on the early earth is limitedly reported 99 00:04:28,950 --> 00:04:26,479 for most of data about liquid co2 is 100 00:04:31,510 --> 00:04:28,960 taken for industrial purposes 101 00:04:33,909 --> 00:04:31,520 therefore we decided to find about the 102 00:04:36,150 --> 00:04:33,919 solution and distribution of elements 103 00:04:39,110 --> 00:04:36,160 experimentally 104 00:04:42,150 --> 00:04:39,120 first we have to construct our own 105 00:04:44,550 --> 00:04:42,160 extraction system for liquid co2 and 106 00:04:45,510 --> 00:04:44,560 then we conducted experiments using the 107 00:04:47,510 --> 00:04:45,520 system 108 00:04:49,110 --> 00:04:47,520 today i will share about the result of 109 00:04:51,830 --> 00:04:49,120 two experiments 110 00:04:53,909 --> 00:04:51,840 first we focused on major elements that 111 00:04:55,909 --> 00:04:53,919 exist in modern seawater 112 00:04:59,270 --> 00:04:55,919 all of them being important element to 113 00:05:01,670 --> 00:04:59,280 earth and all living cells and animals 114 00:05:03,749 --> 00:05:01,680 second we focus on heavy metals 115 00:05:05,510 --> 00:05:03,759 particularly those found in chimneys of 116 00:05:07,590 --> 00:05:05,520 hydrosomal vents 117 00:05:10,710 --> 00:05:07,600 some of those metals are found to form 118 00:05:12,710 --> 00:05:10,720 organometallic complex that are known to 119 00:05:15,189 --> 00:05:12,720 be soluble to co2 120 00:05:16,950 --> 00:05:15,199 and also they are used inside cells 121 00:05:18,870 --> 00:05:16,960 binding on proteins 122 00:05:22,310 --> 00:05:18,880 our objective here is to know about 123 00:05:25,749 --> 00:05:22,320 lucas co2 as a solvent and elucidate 124 00:05:28,070 --> 00:05:25,759 that rho it had in hadith ocean 125 00:05:31,270 --> 00:05:28,080 so first we tried to study the elemental 126 00:05:32,870 --> 00:05:31,280 transfer of measured eons in seawater to 127 00:05:35,110 --> 00:05:32,880 liquid co2 128 00:05:37,670 --> 00:05:35,120 we prepared artificial seawater from 129 00:05:39,350 --> 00:05:37,680 chemical reagents containing major ears 130 00:05:41,350 --> 00:05:39,360 of modern seawater 131 00:05:44,390 --> 00:05:41,360 then sea water was poured into this 132 00:05:46,790 --> 00:05:44,400 reactor as it shows the photograph 133 00:05:48,469 --> 00:05:46,800 and then the reaction was so tight and 134 00:05:51,110 --> 00:05:48,479 liquid co2 was supported through its 135 00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:51,120 ball so pressure was about five to six 136 00:05:55,670 --> 00:05:53,280 megapascal 137 00:05:58,469 --> 00:05:55,680 seawater and liquid co2 were mixed for 138 00:06:01,510 --> 00:05:58,479 one day using magnetic stroller and left 139 00:06:03,270 --> 00:06:01,520 for one day to stabilize 140 00:06:05,590 --> 00:06:03,280 and it is technically difficult to 141 00:06:08,070 --> 00:06:05,600 analyze this liquid co2 as a solvent 142 00:06:09,270 --> 00:06:08,080 because it vaporizes in atmospheric 143 00:06:12,309 --> 00:06:09,280 pressure 144 00:06:14,390 --> 00:06:12,319 and it's solvent that is not popular so 145 00:06:16,710 --> 00:06:14,400 we decided to collect the solute by 146 00:06:17,909 --> 00:06:16,720 extracting the liquid co2 into another 147 00:06:19,990 --> 00:06:17,919 co tube 148 00:06:22,390 --> 00:06:20,000 this tube was depressurized so the 149 00:06:25,749 --> 00:06:22,400 difference in pressure automatically 150 00:06:27,990 --> 00:06:25,759 moved liquid co2 from the tube 151 00:06:30,710 --> 00:06:28,000 the tube was opened slowly 152 00:06:33,029 --> 00:06:30,720 so gas shield 2 would not burst out and 153 00:06:35,270 --> 00:06:33,039 then pure water it was injected in the 154 00:06:39,029 --> 00:06:35,280 tube and left out for 30 minutes to 155 00:06:41,909 --> 00:06:39,039 collect the elements left behind by co2 156 00:06:45,510 --> 00:06:41,919 finally water was collected and analyzed 157 00:06:48,629 --> 00:06:45,520 by ian chromatography 158 00:06:49,589 --> 00:06:48,639 the result is shown here 159 00:06:52,150 --> 00:06:49,599 and 160 00:06:55,670 --> 00:06:52,160 the graph of y-axis shows the solubility 161 00:06:59,110 --> 00:06:55,680 of elements in co2 with unit of molar 162 00:07:01,510 --> 00:06:59,120 fraction multiplied by 1000 and x shows 163 00:07:04,550 --> 00:07:01,520 the number of extractions where we have 164 00:07:06,550 --> 00:07:04,560 to extract liquid co2 from the reactor 165 00:07:09,270 --> 00:07:06,560 multiple times 166 00:07:11,510 --> 00:07:09,280 multiple extraction had to be done to 167 00:07:13,350 --> 00:07:11,520 exclude the effect of small drops of 168 00:07:16,230 --> 00:07:13,360 water left in the tube 169 00:07:17,749 --> 00:07:16,240 contaminating when co2 was extracted 170 00:07:20,230 --> 00:07:17,759 from outside 171 00:07:23,029 --> 00:07:20,240 so the plot shown here which is 172 00:07:25,830 --> 00:07:23,039 six sevens in ace extraction 173 00:07:28,629 --> 00:07:25,840 the concentration stabilized which we 174 00:07:30,870 --> 00:07:28,639 think that was successful in excluding 175 00:07:32,150 --> 00:07:30,880 any contamination of small drops of 176 00:07:34,309 --> 00:07:32,160 water 177 00:07:36,870 --> 00:07:34,319 now from this result sodium and 178 00:07:39,990 --> 00:07:36,880 magnesium seems to be rather insoluble 179 00:07:42,550 --> 00:07:40,000 to liquid co2 with very low solubility 180 00:07:45,430 --> 00:07:42,560 potassium in calcium was not detected at 181 00:07:48,309 --> 00:07:45,440 all the concentration ratio of sodium 182 00:07:50,950 --> 00:07:48,319 and magnesium in liquid co2 is lysis 183 00:07:54,150 --> 00:07:50,960 ratio in seawater which suggests that 184 00:07:56,390 --> 00:07:54,160 this solubility is resembling seawater 185 00:07:59,029 --> 00:07:56,400 and maybe potassium calcium could be 186 00:08:02,309 --> 00:07:59,039 detected if concentration was higher in 187 00:08:04,390 --> 00:08:02,319 the accuracy solution of seawater 188 00:08:06,390 --> 00:08:04,400 so we thought there should be difference 189 00:08:08,950 --> 00:08:06,400 based on their elementary properties 190 00:08:11,510 --> 00:08:08,960 because likeliness to form complex with 191 00:08:13,990 --> 00:08:11,520 co2 is probably different by these 192 00:08:16,230 --> 00:08:14,000 elemental properties so by using aqua 193 00:08:19,430 --> 00:08:16,240 solution with higher concentration 194 00:08:21,350 --> 00:08:19,440 we might be able to find out about this 195 00:08:23,110 --> 00:08:21,360 but as for now we conclude that 196 00:08:25,270 --> 00:08:23,120 distribution of major elements in 197 00:08:27,189 --> 00:08:25,280 seawater from liquid co2 198 00:08:29,670 --> 00:08:27,199 is very small 199 00:08:32,630 --> 00:08:29,680 next i will explain about dissolution of 200 00:08:34,709 --> 00:08:32,640 heavy metals in liquid co2 this time i 201 00:08:36,870 --> 00:08:34,719 used chimney samples from hydrosome 202 00:08:39,350 --> 00:08:36,880 event that was powdered 203 00:08:41,670 --> 00:08:39,360 in previous study liquid co2 was found 204 00:08:42,709 --> 00:08:41,680 near these hydrosol vents at okinawa 205 00:08:45,030 --> 00:08:42,719 trough 206 00:08:47,670 --> 00:08:45,040 before the experiment we had to change 207 00:08:50,470 --> 00:08:47,680 the parts of the reactor to make the 208 00:08:52,470 --> 00:08:50,480 them corrosion resistant 209 00:08:55,030 --> 00:08:52,480 since the reactor itself was made from 210 00:08:56,389 --> 00:08:55,040 stainless steel which contains heavy 211 00:08:59,110 --> 00:08:56,399 metal itself 212 00:09:02,310 --> 00:08:59,120 and those heavy metals could be detected 213 00:09:04,630 --> 00:09:02,320 in the extraction service solution 214 00:09:06,790 --> 00:09:04,640 after adjusting the reactor powdered 215 00:09:09,590 --> 00:09:06,800 chimney samples were put into glass 216 00:09:11,910 --> 00:09:09,600 vials that went into the reactor 217 00:09:12,949 --> 00:09:11,920 then liquid co2 was poured into the 218 00:09:14,070 --> 00:09:12,959 reactor 219 00:09:15,990 --> 00:09:14,080 and they're 220 00:09:18,710 --> 00:09:16,000 stabilized for one day 221 00:09:21,990 --> 00:09:18,720 elementary recovered using these tubes 222 00:09:25,350 --> 00:09:22,000 as previous experience did and analyzed 223 00:09:27,509 --> 00:09:25,360 by icp oes 224 00:09:29,670 --> 00:09:27,519 the analyze elements are shown in 225 00:09:32,470 --> 00:09:29,680 colored squares those that were not 226 00:09:34,630 --> 00:09:32,480 detected at all is shown gray and those 227 00:09:36,470 --> 00:09:34,640 that were detected in any of the samples 228 00:09:39,590 --> 00:09:36,480 are shown in orange 229 00:09:41,750 --> 00:09:39,600 so these are some resultants experiment 230 00:09:44,470 --> 00:09:41,760 the red circle implies the concentration 231 00:09:47,590 --> 00:09:44,480 of the element found in liquid co2 while 232 00:09:50,310 --> 00:09:47,600 triangle and diamond implied controls 233 00:09:51,670 --> 00:09:50,320 before and after the extraction of 234 00:09:54,710 --> 00:09:51,680 element 235 00:09:57,269 --> 00:09:54,720 if the red circle is above both controls 236 00:10:00,470 --> 00:09:57,279 we defined that to be dissolved 237 00:10:03,509 --> 00:10:00,480 and elements on analyzed silver calcium 238 00:10:05,430 --> 00:10:03,519 copper iron magnesium nickel and zinc 239 00:10:07,030 --> 00:10:05,440 were detected from at least one of the 240 00:10:08,949 --> 00:10:07,040 chimney samples 241 00:10:11,590 --> 00:10:08,959 these elements are classified as 242 00:10:13,910 --> 00:10:11,600 transition metals which is known to form 243 00:10:15,990 --> 00:10:13,920 a complex more than other elements 244 00:10:19,750 --> 00:10:16,000 suggesting that dissolution might have 245 00:10:21,430 --> 00:10:19,760 happened due to forming complex with co2 246 00:10:24,230 --> 00:10:21,440 next results show 247 00:10:26,949 --> 00:10:24,240 elements that were constantly detected 248 00:10:29,590 --> 00:10:26,959 from liquid co2 extraction samples 249 00:10:31,350 --> 00:10:29,600 regardless of chimney powders 250 00:10:34,069 --> 00:10:31,360 we think that these elements were 251 00:10:36,470 --> 00:10:34,079 dissolved in liquid co2 from the tank 252 00:10:38,870 --> 00:10:36,480 they are classified as boron group which 253 00:10:42,550 --> 00:10:38,880 is known to form complex with alkali 254 00:10:46,870 --> 00:10:42,560 eons co2 may have formed a complex by 255 00:10:47,990 --> 00:10:46,880 being the alkyl form two three two minus 256 00:10:49,829 --> 00:10:48,000 so 257 00:10:50,949 --> 00:10:49,839 according to the result from this 258 00:10:53,430 --> 00:10:50,959 research 259 00:10:55,670 --> 00:10:53,440 liquid co2 seems to dissolve low amount 260 00:10:58,630 --> 00:10:55,680 of simple elements from the chimney or 261 00:11:01,430 --> 00:10:58,640 distribute major ians from seawater 262 00:11:04,150 --> 00:11:01,440 it suggests that zco2 might provide low 263 00:11:05,269 --> 00:11:04,160 metal environment in the hadiya neon of 264 00:11:07,750 --> 00:11:05,279 the ocean 265 00:11:09,829 --> 00:11:07,760 providing unique environment for 266 00:11:11,829 --> 00:11:09,839 probiotic chemistry as a reserve and 267 00:11:13,990 --> 00:11:11,839 reaction solvent 268 00:11:16,470 --> 00:11:14,000 further experiments on various solutes 269 00:11:19,030 --> 00:11:16,480 and analysis of liquid co2 near 270 00:11:21,750 --> 00:11:19,040 hydrosomal vent in today's ocean 271 00:11:24,710 --> 00:11:21,760 is needed to elucidate the row of liquid 272 00:11:27,110 --> 00:11:24,720 co2 as a solvent 273 00:11:29,910 --> 00:11:27,120 so for future works we must conduct 274 00:11:32,470 --> 00:11:29,920 experiments with longer time force even 275 00:11:34,550 --> 00:11:32,480 though low solubility was observed we do 276 00:11:37,509 --> 00:11:34,560 not know the reaction time was enough to 277 00:11:40,069 --> 00:11:37,519 reach equilibrium 278 00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:40,079 also we are working on to analyze the 279 00:11:45,670 --> 00:11:42,480 solubility of organic molecules such as 280 00:11:48,150 --> 00:11:45,680 amino acids in liquid co2 so we hope to 281 00:11:50,629 --> 00:11:48,160 report that in future research 282 00:11:52,470 --> 00:11:50,639 so that's all for my research 283 00:11:55,030 --> 00:11:52,480 and these are the people
