5. Conclusions
- (1)
- Careful design and theoretical modeling of solution chemistry led to the precipitation of high-purity nesquehonite in NH4Cl-free experiments.
- (2)
- The gas-side and liquid-side mass transfer coefficients were estimated through combining experimental data and a two-film mass transfer model. Notably, the CO2 mass transfer resistance on the liquid side was found to be greater than the gas side, suggesting that the liquid-side reaction is the major limiting step in the overall reaction and that a higher liquid-side mass transfer coefficient should promote CO2 absorption.
- (3)
- Interaction of CO2(aq) with NH3(aq) is a critical process controlling CO2 mass transfer from the gas to the solid phase. Based on the zwitterion mechanism, NH3(aq) concentration correlates closely with the apparent rate constant of the CO2–NH3(aq) reaction (), pointing to the importance of NH3 in the overall reaction. Together with the literature data, our results suggest that increasing temperature, pH, and NH3(aq) concentration would facilitate CO2 absorption.
- (4)
- The solid products are sensitive to ambient conditions and treatments. If the initial ammonium nitrogen concentration is low ( < 2), only nesquehonite would precipitate; if > 2, roguinite would appear. High pH value and high Mg concentration could help nesquehonite overcome the nucleation energy barrier and facilitate carbonation. Thus, besides adjusting pH, adding dissolved Mg is likely an effective way to enhance the precipitation rate of Mg-carbonate.
- (5)
- Industrially useful and more stable materials could be obtained with designed treatments of the solid products. Specifically, washing nesquehonite and roguinite in hot water (>50 °C) could convert those minerals to more basic forms of Mg-carbonate (e.g., dypingite).
