06 — ENERGY & REGENERATION / SIMULATED ENVIRONMENT

Power the hypothesis, not a conclusion.

Compare simulated solar input with an explicitly hypothetical regeneration demand.

SCENARIO
Feasibility unknown. A positive illustrative energy balance does not establish that the reaction or recycling loop works.

Idealized regeneration

UNVERIFIED
Ga₂O₃ → 2Ga + 3/2 O₂

Idealized equation only. Recovery is an independent user assumption, not computed from solar supply. Practical regeneration energy, oxide separation, equipment losses and oxygen release are unknown.

Excluded: chamber heating, cooling, separation, solar variability physics, electrical efficiency, storage and embodied energy. All input solar power is optimistically counted as available.
