“…Silicate rocks are the most suitable host rock formations for mineralized carbon, with the rate of carbonate mineral production being kinetically controlled. Huijgen and Comans (2003) and Zevenhoven and Fagerlund (2010) have reviewed the mineralization of CO 2 . As mineral carbonation is an analog of natural weathering, the reaction between CO 2 and suitable silicate rocks can be summarized as (Equation 1):…”

Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a technology approach to the management of anthropogenic carbon dioxide gas emissions to the atmosphere. By injecting CO 2 into host rocks, or by employing a an ex situ application step, geological formations can react with and store huge volumes of CO 2 as carbonate minerals. An alternative mineral feedstock material is the Gt of industrial process wastes that are often disposed to landfill. By applying an accelerated carbonation step to solid waste, there is potential to sequestrate meaningful quantities of CO 2 in carbonate-cemented products that have reuse potential. The manufacture of carbonated aggregates is commercially established in Europe, and recent advances in technology include a mobile plant that directly utilizes flue-gas derived CO 2 in the mineralisation process. The present work discusses the basis for mineralization in geologically derived minerals and industrial wastes, with a focus being on the manufacture of products with value. An assessment of mineralized construction aggregates suggests that carbon capture, utilization, and storage technology can manage significant quantities of this CO 2 .

“…Soon it was recognized that the two major challenges for large-scale mineralization of CO 2 are extracting or activating the reactive component Mg from a silicate mineral and speeding up the carbonation chemistry kinetics, respectively. 12 Also the use of heat of reaction is not explicitly addressed. 32 Th is latter path appeared to be too complex and energy demanding.…”

“…Th us, the CO 2 -containing gas may be used as such, on site, signifi cantly reducing costs by removing the requirement of a separate CO 2 capture step. 12 Brines from industrial processes suitable for CO 2 mineralization include Ca-containing waste streams, such as red mud fl ows, 69 mixtures of bauxite and saline waste water from aluminum production, 70 saline brines from oil/gas extraction, 71 fl y-ash containing brines, 72 and oil shale ashes as well as ash transportation waters 73 and Mg-rich wastewater. (Oxyfuel combustion is another method to avoid removing CO 2 from gases with high oxygen content; combing oxyfuel with CO 2 mineralization is a very attractive option.…”

“…4 At many locations worldwide (exceeding the number of locations where underground CO 2 sequestration is feasible) large deposits of suitable mineral, usually magnesium silicates (serpentine, olivine) but sometimes also calcium silicates (wollastonite) are available. Several literature reviews [8][9][10][11][12][13] and critical assessments 14 of the technology illustrate the progress that has been made. 6,7 Despite the recognized and well-documented advantages of CO 2 mineral sequestration -very large capacity, no post-storage monitoring needed, exothermic overall process chemistry -the development work is still at the laboratory demonstration scale: twenty years of R&D work has not yet resulted in mature technology that can be applied on a large scale in an economically viable way.…”

The years ahead will show whether CO2 mineral sequestration can be developed to a unit scale of the order of 1 Mt/a CO2 storage around the year 2020, offering additional large‐scale carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) capacity besides underground CO2 sequestration. Motivated by the slow deployment of large‐scale underground storage of CO2 or simply the availability of large amounts of suitable minerals, progress on mineral sequestration is being steadily made and reported by an increasing number of research teams and projects worldwide. Other well‐documented advantages of the method are that it offers leakage‐free CO2 fixation that does not require post‐storage monitoring and an overwhelmingly large capacity is offered by mineral resources available worldwide, besides the feature that the chemical conversion releases significant amounts of heat. As recognized more recently, it also offers the possibility to operate with a CO2‐containing gas directly, removing the expensive CO2 separation step from the CCS process chain. Moreover, the solid products can be used in applications ranging from land reclamation to iron‐ and steelmaking. With the technology overview given in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Special Report on CCS (2005) as a reference point, the method is reviewed and its capacity, weaknesses, and strengths are re‐assessed. The state‐of‐the‐art after twenty years of R&D work as reflected by ongoing development work inside and outside laboratories is summarized, illustrating the future prospects of CO2 mineralization within a portfolio of CCS technologies under development worldwide. Current developments include an increasing number of patents and patent applications and a trend toward scale‐up and demonstration. © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd

of biobased diols with phosgene derivatives [2,4] and the catalytic copolymerization of sustainable epoxides and CO 2 . [5,6] The copolymerization of biobased epoxides and CO 2 is of particular interest as it combines the use of biobased raw materials and the reduction of CO 2 . The anthropogenic emission of CO 2 accumulates to 32 Gt each year, which is caused mainly by the incineration of carbon matter. CO 2 is a greenhouse gas that contributes significantly to the warming of the earth's atmosphere. [7] Global warming increases chances of catastrophic weather phenomena and a rising sea level and, thus, impacts on our everyday life dramatically. Measures have been taken to reduce the emission and to contain the rise of CO 2 levels in the atmosphere in the last few decades. Part of these measures can be described by the concepts of carbon capture and storage/utilization (CCS/CCU). [8][9][10] The CCU deals with the separation and transformation of CO 2 from process gases (e.g., combustion gases in power plants and natural gas) to prevent emission of the greenhouse gas into the atmosphere. The separation step is achieved by the use of either chemical/physical absorbents or organic/inorganic membrane materials. [9,11] The class of absorbents is dominated nowadays by alkanol amine solutions, for example, monoethanolamine and diethanolamine, which require high temperatures for regeneration of the solvent. [12,13] Hence, these "wet-scrubbing" processes are connected to a considerable energy penalty that adds to the total emission of CO 2 . [14] The more energy-efficient-though less developed-technology relies on the use of membrane materials that separate CO 2 from other process gases by size exclusion (mostly hybrid metal-organic frameworks) [15,16] or solubility/diffusivity mechanisms (polymeric membranes), respectively. [17,18] The latter comprise a group of polymeric materials that exhibit permeabilities P (rate of transport through the matrix) and selectivities α (preference of one gas over the other; in this article the "ideal selectivity" is calculated as the ratio of two permeabilities) extending over several orders of magnitude. [19] However, those materials suffer frequently from low long-term stability, known as aging, which has prevented industrial application so far. [20] The large volumes of CO 2 captured in the industrial processes are either stored in gas-tight (often natural) basins (CCS) [10] or transformed into high-value chemicals via various chemical routes (CCU). Some of those routes are The biobased poly(limonene carbonate) (PLimC) synthesized by catalytic copolymerization of trans-limonene oxide and CO 2 unifies sustainability, carbon capture and utilization of CO 2 in one material. Films of PLimC show surprisingly high gas permeation and good selectivity. Additionally, it is not only very permeable to gases, but also to light, while simultaneously being a good heat insulator and mechanically strong, representing a novel type of material that is defined here as "breathing glass." Hence, this stud...
