(57) Systems and methods for the effective sequestration of waste gases from an industrial process such as, but not limited to, one or more lime or cement kilns used in the production of quicklime. This system may be used in conjunction with one or more shafts to an existing or abandoned mine that includes water capable of removing various pollutants in the gas stream, including but not limited, to sulfur compounds, chlorine compounds, mercury compounds, and carbon dioxide. Such pollutants may be sequestered in the mine itself through the process of particulate formation when the gas stream reacts with the mine water.
