Utilization of Carbonation Products

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Carbon Dioxide Mineralization and Utilization

Abstract

Large-scale utilization of alkaline solid wastes provides a solution to the environmental problems associated with waste dumping, as well as energy and material conservation. However, conventional uses of alkaline solid wastes have encountered several technological barriers, including fatal volume expansion, heavy metal leaching, and low cementitious property of slag. To overcome these barriers of alkaline solid wastes utilization, an accelerated carbonation process is proposed and reviewed in terms of theoretical perspectives and practical considerations. In this chapter, the deployment of accelerated carbonation technologies for simultaneous CO2 capture and solid waste stabilization is discussed to overcome the barriers, from the perspectives of engineering performance and environmental benefits. The strengths and opportunities of utilizing the carbonate product are comprehensively reviewed in terms of theoretical and practical considerations.
