A pathway is proposed to diminish atmospheric CO₂ accumulations which is distinct from traditional carbon capture and geological sequestration strategies and from existing negative emissions technologies. Unlike conventional sorbent- or solvent-based CO₂ capture processes where substantial energy expenditures are associated with demixing and desorbing CO₂, the single-step carbon sequestration and storage (sCS²) approach relies on electrolytic carbonate mineral precipitation using renewable energy within a simple and scalable process design. Although numerous approaches have implied electrolysis for carbon management, the sCS² approach is unique in the following ways: (1) CO₂ mineralization for promoting solid carbonate formation. (2) Flow-through membrane-less electrolysis. (3) Integrated electrolytic reactor–rotary drum filter. These attributes render sCS² as an approach worthy of more detailed evaluation, development, and scaling for global-scale carbon management.
