In this short video, Edda Sif Pind Aradóttir (Carbfix, Iceland) explains a new technology. The CarbFix process captures carbon dioxide in water and injects it into subsurface basalts. Underground, the CO2 reacts with the host rocks to form stable minerals, creating a permanent storage solution.

This video was shared during a keynote presentation at the 2020 NZ Geothermal Workshop, and is shared here with permission.
