Dear, keep update with this site- https://www.google.co.in/amp/s/currentaffairs.gktoday.in/carbfix-project-worlds-negative-emissions-carbon-capture-plant-begins-operations-iceland-10201749108.html/amp

As an experiment, I don't think there are any major threats. See the website: https://www.or.is/english/carbfix/carbfix-project Scaling up would be different, but the environmental risks would be site-specific (earthquakes? leakage? ...?). I have not seen an economic analysis for large-scale application, but the costs of leaving CO2 in the atmosphere are also high, so some risks are acceptable.
