摘要: Carbon capture and storage looks to be the most promising option stem rise in atmospheric CO2 concentration its consequences including global warming. Consideration of various options available suggests that geological will probably dominate future carbon-storage efforts. The safest host is formation carbonate minerals. Carbonate mineral favoured by presence reactive divalent-metal silicate minerals, particular basalts ultra-mafic rocks. In absence such rocks stable form injected likely via solubility trapping, which involves dissolution into waters. quantity can stored depends on composition waters greatly enhanced increasing pH aqueous complexes. © 2010 European Mineralogical Union Society Great Britain&Ireland.
