Enhancing serpentine dissolution kinetics for mineral carbon dioxide sequestration

نویسنده

  • Klaus S. Lackner
چکیده

Mineral carbon dioxide sequestration binds carbon dioxide by reacting it with magnesium silicate minerals to form solid magnesium carbonates that are ready for disposal. Research onmineral sequestration has focused on enhancing process kinetics in aqueous processing schemes. High costs of these processes are associatedwithmineral processing, such as ultrafine grinding, or the consumption of acids and bases, vailable online xxx

Enhancing Process Kinetics for Mineral Carbon Sequestration

The current low-cost process for mineral carbonation involves the direct carbonation of a slurry of magnesium or calcium silicate mineral with supercritical CO2. The process is currently limited by the slow reaction kinetics of the carbonation reactions, and in particular the slow dissolution rates of the silicates in weakly acidic conditions. Enhancing the dissolution rate in weakly acidic con...

Serpentine and single stage mineral carbonation for the storage of carbon dioxide

Mineral carbonation is the formation of stable calcium, magnesium, and iron carbonates from the reaction between the metals in common minerals and carbon dioxide. The benign and long-term nature of this CO2 sequestration option has led to ongoing research efforts. Magnesium silicates such as olivine and serpentine have been the focus of mineral carbonation research for the sequestration of CO2 ...

Dissolution of Magnesium from Serpentine Mineral in Sulfuric Acid Solution

As the volume of CO2, one of greenhouse gases linked to global warming, in the atmosphere increases, there has been an increasing interest in CO2 sequestration. Aqueous carbonation, which involves the extraction of Mg from serpentine minerals and the subsequent carbonation reaction with CO2 to form the geologically stable mineral MgCO3, has been proposed as a promising CO2 sequestration technol...

CO2 mineral sequestration: physically activated dissolution of serpentine and pH swing process

The effect of the physical activation on the dissolution of serpentine was investigated and a pH swing scheme was developed to improve the overall conversion of the CO2 mineral sequestration process. Various methods of the surface agitation such as ultrasound, acoustic, and internal (in-situ) grinding were examined for their effectiveness in removing the diffusion limiting SiO2 layer in order t...

Carbon Dioxide Sequestration by Direct Mineral Carbonation: Results from Recent Studies and Current Status

Direct mineral carbonation has been investigated as a process to convert gaseous CO2 into a geologically stable, solid final form. The process utilizes a solution of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), sodium chloride (NaCl), and water, mixed with a mineral reactant, such as olivine (Mg2SiO4) or serpentine [Mg3Si2O5(OH)4]. Carbon dioxide is dissolved into this slurry, by diffusion through the surface ...
