Described is a method for enhanced carbon dioxide (CO) sequestration in geological formations. The method includes dissolving COin a low salinity fluid to form a CO-brine solution. The low salinity fluid includes sodium (Na) ions and sulfate (SO) ions. The CO-brine solution is injected into a geological formation, and the COreacts with the geological formation to produce solid carbonate minerals for COsequestration.
