Geological sequestration of carbon dioxide by hydrous carbonate formation in steelmaking slag

The formation of carbonate solids from the alkaline earth oxide phases in steelmaking slag was investigated in dry and aqueous conditions as a vehicle for carbon dioxide sequestration. The goal of this research was to determine the process conditions that would increase the kinetics of the carbonate formation process under hydrous conditions, enabling direct removal of carbon dioxide from steelmaking offgas --Abstract, page iv
