Part of the solution is get the carbon off before or during combustion, set it aside as a solid. Just burn the H and the O. Or make enough fossil free electricity to eat the energy loss in splitting water. Or both.

Methane powered fuel cells do this if I understand them correctly.

The plan for carbon sequestration is a bit yuckier than that if you’re talking about “clean coal” technology. The idea is to store carbon dioxide gas in a cave or cavern deep underground and hope it stays there forever. I’m not a clean coal proponent.
