Comparison of different reaction routes for carbonation of APC residues
Open accessAbstract
This paper analyses and compares the results of accelerated carbonation experiments for CO2 storage carried out on the air pollution control (APC) residues of a waste incineration plant, via both the dry and the wet route. The two routes achieved a similar maximum calcium conversion to carbonates (around 65%) corresponding to a potential CO2 storage capacity of 250 g/kg residues. For the dry route, maximum conversion was achieved in a few minutes at 400 ∘C under a 10% CO2 atmosphere, whereas for the wet route it was obtained in about 10 minutes under a 100% CO2 atmosphere, with a liquid to solid ratio of 0.2, at 30 ∘C and 3 bar, or without water addition at 50 ∘C. These results suggest that carbonation of APC residues, and possibly of other combustion residues, through either the dry or wet route, may be effectively applied for CO2 storage, at least in the niche market of waste incineration.

Temperature influences both the dissolution of CO2 in water (dissolution decreases with temperature) and dissolution of calcium and magnesium from minerals (dissolution increases when temperature increases).

Low temperatures enhance the diffusion of CO2 in the carbonated shell, while high temperatures increase the magnesium and calcium available.

Baciocchi et al. compared dry and wet routes; both achieved similar maximum conversion to carbonates (65%), corresponding to a potential CO2 storage capacity of 0.25 t per t-APC residue, but the dry route presented faster reaction kinetics.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
