Abstract:

Wet carbonation of calcium silicate minerals for CO2 sequestration is a promising carbonsequestration technology.To compare the carbon sequestration effects of different calcium silicate minerals,the effects of temperature,pressure,liquid-solid ratio(mL/g),particle size and mineral additives(NaHCO3 and NaCl) on CO2 sequestration by wet carbonation of wollastonite and anorthite were investigated.The results showed that the carbonation products of wollastonite and anorthite were calcite and aragonite,respectively,and the results of the thermogravimetric experiment indicated that the thermostability of calcite was higher than that of aragonite.The carbonation conversion of wollastonite was higher than that of anorthite under all test conditions,and the carbonation conversion of the two minerals was increased with increasing pressure,decreasing particle size,and the addition of NaHCO3 and NaCl.The maximum carbonation conversions of 83.62% and 16.20% were obtained for wollastonite and anorthite,respectively,with significant differences.The results of Gibbs free energy of dissolution(ΔGr ) showed that,in the range of 120~210 ℃,the ΔGr of wollastonite was always lower than that of anorthite,indicating that the rate of dissolution and the spontaneously occurring extent of dissolution reaction of wollastonite were both greater than that of anorthite.It was a key factor affecting the activity of the carbonation reaction for calcium silicate minerals.

Key words: wollastonite, anorthite, wet carbonation, sequestered CO2, carbon sequestration technology
