Yes, but...

Cheap carbon trap cleans up power station emissions - tech - 26 May 2008 - New Scientist Tech

Most of the story is behind a paywall, but here is the start:
Now a team led by Maciej Radosz at the University of Wyoming in Laramie say they have designed a cheap filter that could capture 90 per cent or more of the CO2 emitted by power stations. "This is a way to capture CO2 for about $20 a tonne - less than half the cost of current methods," says Radosz.
Yes, but surely the bigger issue with CO2 sequestration is where to bury it, and how to get it there.
