With cheap fusion energy, you’d probably do better just taking methane and making methane hydrates of it and pumping it down into the Marianas Trench or someplace cold and under pressure..
I did not mean saturated in the chemical sense, air is a mixture not a solution. Saturated as in the sarcastic, hyperbole sense.

They don't permanently store CO2 as dry ice, it would be converted to a solid compound for long-term storage.
