Once removed from the air, the CO 2 is stored in geologic reservoirs. This involves separating the salt out from solution into small pellets in a structure called a pellet reactor, which was adapted from water treatment technology. These pellets are then heated in a calciner to release the CO 2 in pure gas form.
