Apparently doable with a reasonable time frame now and reducing pollution while doing it.

That would be fantastic.

That does look like an excellent idea. Looking forward to some concrete evidence from the initial trial.

I do hope this does not go the way of the Russian alternative to anti biotics, killed because when the iron curtain came down big pharma companies bought all the rights and shut it down. Basically put a chemist working in the sewers of Moscow found certain samples failed to progress as expected and he found a contaminant. A virus killing virus that adapted as their prey did. Certain bacteria were also found to be prolific killers of other bacteria. theconversation.com/soviet-era-treatment-could-be-the-new-weapon-in-the-war-against-antibiotic-resistance-57836

The whole process as a way of net remove CO2 depends on how you make / produce the Calcium Oxide (Cao) (also known as slaked lime or quick lime) that you need. The usual way to make CaO is to heat limestone (mainly CaCO3) to drive off the CO2. So all they may be actually doing is reversing that process..... so I don't see where the net overall loss in CO2 is?

If they can capture CO2 from all smokestacks there could be a decent reduction.
