Comments on: The Basics of CO2 Sequestration (Storage) https://geothunder.com/the-basics-co2-sequestration/ Tue, 14 Jun 2011 14:51:16 +0000 hourly 1 By: Narsi Santhanam https://geothunder.com/the-basics-co2-sequestration/#comment-11 Thu, 28 Jan 2010 17:17:10 +0000 http://geothunder.com/?p=27#comment-11 You hit the nail on the head when you said “safe storage is not a problem. We can already make it work. It really boils down to infrastructure and economics.”

I run the site PowerPlantCCS ( http://www.powerplantccs.com ) and my conclusion is the same as yours. However, it is also important to note that storing it underground, while it might be technically and economically feasible, might not be the most sustainable solution. It is a rather odd feeling to have billions of tons of CO2 pumped right below us!

There are some methods such as bio-based sequestration that are emerging, but it is too early to say whether they can scale. I only hope that sooner rather than later some breakthrough tech / process will evolve that will be able to sequester CO2 in a “sustainable” way
