If it was possible we wouldn't have the issues with do with global warming, we would be disposing of the co2 already.

Monoethanolamine
On submarines, CO2 is removed with a chemical scrubber, called monoethanolamine. MEA is supplied in liquid form, although it may be a solid dissolved in water. When cold, MEA takes in CO2, when heated, MEA gives up the CO2. On submarines, the CO2 is pumped overboard. On a lunar base, the CO2 would be stored under pressure or liquified until either there was enough plant life to recycle it naturally, or enough spare energy available to dissociate the CO2 into carbon and O2.

The gas CO2 an be compressed and cooled and forms a liquid that is easily stored in a vessel.
Fact is, that process is being considered in getting rid of excess CO2 in industrial processes and pumping that down into the earth below.

You can tip it in a beaker, it's heavier than air so it pours. If you are releasing it you must be collecting it somewhere, keep it in the collection jar.

Yes.
It can be absorbed in many ways.
Plants by photosynthesis.
Sodium peroxide Absorbs it.
Plants lock it up in the bark.
You would have to bury it underground though.
