Reminds me of the theoretical concept of a "digester" of hydrocarbons which kept the carbon and other toxic wastes like say heavy metals bound into a "slag" instead of releasing it atmospherically.
Granted by the time we could manage something like that there would be far better options out there including using excess power generation to synthesize fuel from the air and water - let alone batteries which may use the energy more efficiently.
