ABSTRACT
The hybrid technology of CO2 capture-mineral carbonation (CCMC) using alkaline streams has emerged in recent years. However, thus far, there has been no comprehensive study revealing the mechanisms of the simultaneous CCMC process regarding the choice of amine types and sensitivity of parameters. Combining with the analysis of multistep reaction mechanisms for different amines, we investigated a representative from each category in CCMC using calcium chloride to simulate the alkaline resource after leaching, i.e., primary (ethanolamine, MEA), secondary (diisopropanolamine, DIPA), tertiary (diethylethanolamine, DEAE), and triamine (diethylenetriamine, DETA), respectively. In the adsorption step, increasing the amine concentration beyond 2 mol/L reduced the absorption efficiency of DEAE due to the hydration mechanism, motivating a rational choice of concentration. In CCMC sections, when the amine concentration increased, only DEAE exhibited an increased carbonation efficiency of up to 100%, while DETA showed the lowest conversion. The carbonation of DEAE demonstrated the least sensitivity to temperature. The crystal transformation experiments suggested that over time, the produced vaterite could completely transform to calcite or aragonite, except those from DETA. Thus, with rationally chosen conditions, DEAE was demonstrated ideal for CCMC. These findings obtained in this work provided a theoretical foundation for designing future CCMC processes.
