IcelandIceland's carbon capture project at Grundartangi stores CO2 underground
A project in Grundartangi, Iceland, is drilling deep to store carbon dioxide by mixing it with water, which then solidifies into calcite underground within two years.
Background
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a set of technologies designed to prevent the release of large quantities of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from industrial sources. As global concerns about climate change intensify, many nations and industries are exploring CCS as a potential strategy to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and meet environmental targets.
