Summary: The calcification-carbonation process is a novel cleaner production method to recover alkali and alumina from bauxite residue and obtain harmless residue with low aluminum content and no alkali. By combining simulation and experimental research, the method effectively achieves the recovery of low-concentration Al2O3 and the circulation of alkali liquor.

Summary: The feasibility of producing a cleaner cement through high-temperature carbonation of steel slag was investigated. It was found that high-temperature carbonation significantly improved the compressive strength of the binders and enhanced the degree of carbonation and the formation of reaction products, leading to a stronger and more refined microstructure in the final product.

Summary: Mineral carbonation is an important technology for addressing climate change and environmental issues through CO2 sequestration. Seawater, with its alkaline properties, higher Ca2+ and Mg2+ content, and cost advantages, has emerged as a promising candidate for mineral carbonation. This review assesses the concept, mechanisms, and state-of-the-art technologies of mineral carbonation using seawater, evaluating natural seawater, desalination brine, and seawater-based wastewater. It highlights emerging research, suggests research trends, and discusses constructive perspectives to facilitate the appropriate assessment and development of seawater-based mineral carbonation technology.

Summary: This research explores the possibility of using carbon dioxide to modify the properties of recycled brick powder (RBP) and enhance the engineering performances of RBP-mortar. The study suggests that carbonated RBP has higher micro-pore volume and surface area, leading to increased carbon sequestration and higher strength in RBP-mortars. The findings strongly recommend a combined approach of carbon sequestration and replacement of fine aggregates by recycled brick powder to reduce the embodied carbon of Portland cement-based construction materials.

Summary: CO2 mineralization is not only beneficial for capturing and storing CO2 permanently but also for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. To achieve the large-scale potential of CO2 mineralization, the entire supply chain needs to be considered. A study shows that in Europe, a climate-optimal supply chain for CO2 mineralization can significantly reduce industrial emissions.

Summary: The study proposes a method to address the dual challenges of global warming and nickel supply by utilizing CO2 mineralization for simultaneous mineral carbonation and nickel sulfidization. By releasing nickel ions, converting them into nickel sulfide, and reacting with other metal ions, stable carbonates are formed. Continuous supply of sulfide ions and CO2 is crucial for achieving selective nickel conversion and mineral carbonation.

Summary: A room temperature in-situ wet carbonation method was proposed to activate sintering red mud waste (SRM) and sequester CO2, which resulted in the formation of fine calcite crystals and silica-alumina gel. The carbonated SRM exhibited a high CO2 sequestration rate and pozzolanic reactivity, making it a potential cement mineral admixture.

Summary: The mechanisms of dolomite and magnesite formation at ambient conditions are still unknown, despite their thermodynamic stability. Current synthetic routes for precipitating these minerals require high temperatures and pressures. The formation of dolomite and magnesite is controlled by slow kinetics and further studies are needed to understand the phenomenon.
