If I understand the abstract, it reports finding "Ωb=0.051+0.021−0.025h−170 (95 per cent confidence; h70 = H0/(70 km s−1 Mpc−1) " which I think means 5% of the total (mass+dark matter+dark energy), since cosmology assumes Omega total = 1.0

So they derive the Ωb independently and get the value compatible to what we already know to calculate using CMB and BBN.
