Sure, they have zero net emissions if they start counting at the beginning of the production phase. We need these projects to begin looking at the carbon cost of the materials in the project. Like anything with an up front investment of capitol, companies should start talking about the carbon payoff point or the point at which enough carbon is sequestered or saved to really call the project carbon neutral. How many average maple trees would it take to store all the carbon that was burnt in developing and building the barge, including the functioning of the houses of the engineers, and their transportation to and from work?I don’t realistically expect anyone to be meeting this goal now, but these are the things we will need to consider in the future, if Carbon Neutrality is really the goal.

Do we know if this is published for peer review yet? I would be interested in seeing if their method of catalysis is scalable.
