Capturing CO2 from the major stationary sources and its storage into deep geological formations is considered as a potential mitigation option. Geological storage of CO2 can be undertaken in a variety of geological settings in sedimentary basins. The options for CO2 are as follows: Depleted oil and gas reservoirs Use of CO2 in Deep unmineable coal seams/enhanced coalbed methane (ECBM) recovery Oceans Deep unused saline water-saturated formations Other geological media are basalts, shales, and cavities Subterranean deep saline formations www.civilsdaily.com/lets-know-about-co-sequestration/
