Carbon capture technology can trap and store carbon emissions

1. Power plant emissions injected into an absorber containing solvent

2. The solvent 'collects' the CO2 and the remaining power plant emissions are released

3. Heat is used to separate the solvent from the CO2

4. CO2 is stored, while solvent is reused
