Abstract
The potential impact of greenhouse gas on world climate has created much debate and concern. One of the solutions to reduce the amount of greenhouse gas released into the atmosphere is to capture carbon dioxide and sequester it as a solid compound. Carbon dioxide and suitable silicate minerals exposed to elevated temperature and pressure will result in the formation of carbonate, effectively sequestering the carbon dioxide via mineralization. The object of this investigation was to identify suitable materials for construction of an autoclave mineralization plant to investigate carbon dioxide mineralization with magnesium silicate minerals at various temperatures, pressures, and electrolyte compositions.
