In the present work, the effect of temperature on calcium carbonate precipitation in the biomimetic calcium chloride solution was investigated. A spontaneous calcium carbonate precipitate was formed in the biomimetic calcium chloride solution as a result of the carbon dioxide hydration process. The reaction was conducted at different temperature range vary from 30°C to 100°C. The mass of the calcium carbonate precipitate and the pH solution was measured in the study. The finding indicated that an increment of the temperature has led to the fast pH reduction of the solutions to 7.0. However, the process has retarded the calcium carbonate precipitation process. The optimum temperature for higher calcium carbonate precipitation has occurred at the temperature range of 47.5°C – 65°C which gave the highest calcium carbonate precipitate at 0.121g. The addition of Tris buffer into the calcium chloride solution in this study did not gave an inhibition effect on the calcium carbonate precipitate. Based on the results, an operating condition at 47.5°C – 65°C was recommended to be used in mineral carbonization of CO2 using the biomimetic calcium chloride solution.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
