Although mineral carbonation is a permanent and safe option for CO2 sequestration, it is unfeasible because of its slow reaction rate. Hence, it is necessary to identify amore effective process. The lab-scale study reported here was used to improve the carbonation efficiency using the pressure, temperature, time, and liquid-to-solid ratio variables. CO2 uptake is calculated according to the carbon content of a product by elemental analysis. These results indicate that the carbonation conversion has been enhanced by raising temperature into the range in which H2O exists in the liquid phase and that high pressure had no clear effect.
