Silver bullet or smokescreen? A Deep Dive into artificial carbon sequestration
In Hengill, a volcanic ridge east of Reykjavik, a white steam cloud blurs the outline of a metal power plant. Its four units each contain two metal boxes that whir with fans. These are sucking in the air to trap carbon dioxide, using a sponge-like filter called solid sorbent that binds with the carbon. Once the sponge is saturated, the interior is heated to 100 degrees Celsius, then the carbon is squeezed out and injected deep into an underground basalt rock formation. Within two years, it turns to stone.
