Abstract
One variation of a method for carbon sequestration includes: mixing ambient air including carbon dioxide and secondary gases with a working fluid to generate a first mixture; conveying the first mixture through a compressor to pressurize the first mixture from a first pressure to a second pressure greater than the first pressure to promote absorption of carbon dioxide into the working fluid; depositing the first mixture in a high-pressure vessel to generate an exhaust stream of secondary gases and a second mixture including carbon dioxide dissolved in the working fluid; conveying the second mixture through a turbine configured to extract energy and reduce pressure of the second mixture, from the second pressure to the first pressure, to promote desorption of carbon dioxide from the working fluid; transferring the second mixture into the low-pressure vessel; and releasing carbon dioxide, desorbed from the working fluid, from the low-pressure vessel for collection.
