About 80 Gt reduction in CO2 emission via carbon capture and storage (CCS)
is needed before year 2050 in a 2°C emission budget
IEA, 2015. Energy technology perspectives 2015, Paris: OECD/IEA. 2DS = 2°C Scenario

The CarbFix1 method
CO2(g) + H2O = H2CO3(aq)
H2CO3 = HCO3- + H+
HCO3- = CO3
2- + H+
Dissolution reactions:
Basaltic rock + xH+ …..→ Mg2+ + Ca2+ + Fe2+ + Al 3++SiO2(aq)….
Precipitation reactions:
Ca2+ + CO32- → CaCO3
calcite, (siderite, magnesite……)
“calcite”
Dissolution reactions:
Basaltic rock + xH+ → Mg2+ + Ca2+ + Fe2+ + Al3++SiO2(aq)….
Precipitation reactions:
Fe2+ + S2- → FeS (s)
Pyrite (FeS2) – pyrrhotite(Fe1-xSx) simplified reaction
H2S(g) = H2S(aq)
H2S(aq) = HS- + H+
HS- = S2- + H+H2S gas
bubbles
CO2 H2S
“pyrite”
CO2 and H2S gas mixed with
conservative volatile tracers,
SF6 and SF5CF3
The Hellisheiði Power
Plant:
Injected 175 tonnes of
pure CO2 in January-
March 2012
Injected 73 tonnes of
CO2-H2S-H2 gas mixture
(75%-24%-1%) in June-
August 2012
Water pumped to the
injection site and the carbon
was labeled with14C
2 kg/s of water
pumped out of the first
monitoring well
Temperature 20-50°C.
Distance 125 m at 520
m depth.
