Nature- Published online: 13 November 2008. "Going
underground" Carbon capture and storage may be one way to
achieve deep reductions in emissions, but ensuring the gas stays
buried will be crucial to proving its viability. Mark Schrope reports
on a promising new method for monitoring carbon dioxide deep
underground.

Skyonic, "has come up with an industrial process called SkyMine
that captures 90 percent of the carbon dioxide coming out of
smoke stacks and mixes it with sodium hydroxide to make sodium
bicarbonate. The energy required for the reaction to turn the
chemicals into baking soda comes from the waste heat from the
factory." CNet. November 27, 2007.
