Geological storage of CO2 has been widely studied for some years now at international level, particularly in the USA, Japan, Australia and Europe.
The principle is as follows: CO2 from a major source of emissions (industrial flue gases, or CO2-rich raw natural gas leaving a reservoir) is captured, concentrated and compressed, then transported to a suitable geological site for storage.
The capture-transport-storage chain is shown in figure 1.
