Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for the permanent and safe sequestration of carbon dioxide gas and is particularly concerned with an efficient integrated process for the chemical conversion of carbon dioxide to solid carbonates thereby reducing the accumulation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
- the sequestration of carbon dioxide gas in repositories that are isolated from the atmosphere is a developing technology that is widely recognised as an essential element in global attempts to reduce carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere.
- the rapid increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations is of concern due to its properties as greenhouse gas and its contribution to the phenomena of global warming and climate change.
- Prototype demonstration facilities for the capture and sequestration of carbon dioxide exist in several countries. While various technologies exist for the capture and concentration of carbon dioxide in combustion flue gases, most current facilities utilise underground sequestration known as geosequestration. This may occur in depleted oil or gas reservoirs or other underground porous formations that are suitably isolated from the atmosphere. These reservoirs or formations may be situated under land or sea. Another possible subterranean repository for carbon dioxide gas are so-called saline aquifers. Direct storage of carbon dioxide in the deep ocean has also been investigated but has yet to be successfully demonstrated on any significant scale.
- mineral carbonation Another field of study is that known as mineral carbonation; whereby carbon dioxide is chemically reacted with alkaline and alkaline-earth metal oxide or silicate minerals to form stable solid carbonates.
- the use of this route in a mineral carbonation process plant using minerals that have been extracted and processed is known as ex-situ mineral carbonation, as opposed to in-situ carbonation whereby carbon dioxide is deposited into underground mineral formations and reacts over longer timeframes with such minerals in existing underground formations.
- the present invention is concerned with the ex-situ approach to carbon dioxide sequestration via mineral carbonation. The invention assumes that a stream containing carbon dioxide is available for such mineral carbonation.
- Such streams may originate from flue gases from any combustion process, or from processes known in the art as gasification or gas reforming, as well as from typical chemical manufacturing processes such as ammonia or Portland cement manufacture.
- concentration of carbon dioxide in such streams may be substantially raised via technological routes known in the field. These include so-called carbon capture technologies such as those employing membrane separation technology or alternatively those employing carbon dioxide solvents such as amines. In the latter case, these solvents capture the carbon dioxide from dilute streams such as flue gases and then undergo solvent regeneration to release the concentrated streams of carbon dioxide and the regenerated solvent for use in further capture.
- streams of concentrated carbon dioxide and water vapour may be formed directly in the combustion processes via the use of oxygen rather than air to feed the combustion process.
- Another process known as gasification produces hydrogen and relatively pure carbon dioxide streams through the gasification of hydrocarbonaceous fuels under suitable process conditions.
- the present invention is concerned with the solidification of such streams of carbon dioxide in the process of mineral carbonation as described herein. While it is advantageous to use such highly concentrated streams of carbon dioxide in the present invention, the use of lower purity streams is not precluded. In particular, the presence of water in such streams is not necessarily unfavourable since the process uses aqueous slurries whose water content may be readily adjusted if required. Furthermore, the key aspects of the current invention may be applied to slower or less intensive processes for carbon dioxide sequestration. These may include for example carbon dioxide sequestration from the atmosphere.
- the present invention provides the appropriate integrated activation process for the alkali or alkali earth metal silicate feedstocks and the necessary integrated solvent processes for the carbonation reactions required for viable ex-situ sequestration.
- Mineral carbonation has a number of potential advantages over other methods of carbon dioxide sequestration. These include relative permanence and stability and the elimination of any risks of leakage of carbon dioxide gas. Furthermore, suitable subterranean sites for geosequestration do not exist at all locations where they are required. The chemical reactions of mineral carbonation are also thermodynamically favoured, with an exothermic release of energy due to the formation of the carbonates. Many of the minerals required for mineral carbonation are abundant and widely distributed globally. These minerals may be readily mined and subjected to known comminution and other technologies. They are generally benign and the environmental and safety risks are readily manageable. In particular, the mineral broadly known as serpentine has been estimated to be available in quantities sufficient to sequester all global emissions of carbon dioxide from known fossil fuel reserves.

- serpentine which is a favourable feedstock due to its relative abundance. Much attention has been focussed on serpentine for that reason.
- olivine and wollastonite exhibit the best potential for utilisation in industrial process and dismiss serpentine as completely unviable due to the high energy input required for activation of serpentine. They do not teach any means of achieving such a viable activation and their calculations are based on the use of electrical energy for activation of serpentine. They conclude that the use of serpentine in ex-situ industrial processes can be ruled out and label it as an impractical methodology. They conclude further that the only likely application of serpentine in sequestration is as a slowly reactive matrix for in-situ geosequestration of carbon dioxide.
- ZECA Corporation (2006) has published information on a process to sequester carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fired electricity generation using mineral carbonation of magnesium silicate minerals.
- no direct teaching of a viable process to achieve this is given, although reference is made to a patent-pending process based on the work of the Albany Research Center.
- published work from the workers at Albany Research Center has ruled out the use of serpentine in ex-situ mineral sequestration of carbon dioxide and has not taught a means of achieving a viable process.
- US Patent application No. 2004/0219090 Al by Dziedic et al. describes a process for removing carbon dioxide from a gaseous stream by diffusing carbon dioxide into water, adding a catalyst to accelerate the conversion of the carbon dioxide to carbonic acid and adding a mineral ion to form a precipitate of a salt of the carbonic acid. This process is also quite different to that of the current invention, although may be advantageously used in conjunction with the current invention particularly for the sequestration of carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere.
- the present invention provides a process for the solidification of carbon dioxide of by reaction of carbon dioxide with an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal silicate feedstock to form a corresponding alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonate, which process comprises direct thermal activation of the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal silicate feedstock by combustion of fuel to produce an activated feedstock, suspending the activated feedstock in a solvent slurry and contacting the activated feedstock with carbon dioxide to convert the carbon dioxide to form an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonate.
- the process of the present invention advantageously provides a means for sequestering carbon dioxide by conversion of carbon dioxide into stable alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonates.
- the process thereby provides a means for reducing the amount of carbon dioxide released to the atmosphere.
- An important aspect of the present invention involves direct thermal activation of the alkaline or alkaline earth metal silicate feedstock for reaction with carbon dioxide. Activation is achieved by combustion of a fuel with the heat released being applied directly to the feedstock.
- Activation is achieved by combustion of a fuel with the heat released being applied directly to the feedstock.
- the use of electricity to provide the heat for activation of the feedstock for example, using an electric furnace, would involve indirect thermal activation since the heat of combustion of fuel (to generate electricity) is not being applied directly to heat the feedstock. This is energetically disadvantageous.
- the fuel used to achieve direct thermal activation of the feedstock is invariably a carbonaceous or hydrocarbonaceous fuel, such as coal, oil or natural gas.
- Thermal activation of the feedstock may take place in any suitable heating vessel. This will usually take the form of a kiln, furnace or similar combustion chamber or heater.
- the feedstock may be contacted with the combustion gases from the fuel or may be heated via radiation, conduction or convection from the fuel combustion chamber.
- the heating vessel may be designed to provide turbulent or dispersive or attritive conditions to assist in achieving the dehydroxylation of the feedstock essential for activation.
- the reaction vessel may be designed to rotate and/or agitate the feedstock during heating thereof to assist in dehydroxylation (activation).
- the feedstock is typically transported as a ground solid through the heating vessel.
- the heating vessel may be of vertical shaft design comprising one or more substantially vertical chambers and wherein the feedstock is charged and flows counter- currently to gases produced by the combustion of the fuel.
- the solid feedstock may be transported through the heating vessel in fluid media in pipes or vessels, such fluids being either gases or liquids.
- Reaction of carbon dioxide with activated feedstock is exothermic.
- the activated feedstock is pre-heated prior to direct thermal activation using heat liberated by the exothermic (downstream/subsequent) reaction.
- a series of heat exchanges may be used to convey heat to the feedstock.
- pre-heating may utilise low grade or waste heat from an associated carbonaceous or hydrocarbonaceous combustion, gasification and/or reforming process.
- Pre-heating of the silicate feedstock in this way will make the process of the invention more energetically economical.
- Pre-heating may utilise a series of heating vessels successively utilising the exothermic heat of the subsequent carbonation reaction and/or low grade or waste heat from an associated carbonaceous or hydrocarbonaceous fuel combustion, gasification or reforming process
- Activation of the silicate feedstock typically involves raising and finally maintaining the temperature of said feedstock to a temperature of from about 580 and 800 degrees Celsius. While the use of heat from the exothermic heat of the carbonation reaction and/or low grade or waste heat from an associated hydrocarbon fuel combustion, gasification or reforming process for pre-heating the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal containing streams may make this process more energy and cost efficient, these steps are not absolutely essential. AU of the energy required to achieve activation energy may be supplied by an efficient heating vessel. This process, particularly with agitation applied in the combustion vessel or heater, has now been found to provide a more energy-efficient and hence industrially viable process for carbon dioxide sequestration via ex-situ mineral carbonation.
- the activated feedstock suspended in a solvent slurry is subsequently contacted with supercritical, liquefied or high-pressure gaseous carbon dioxide to substantially convert the carbon dioxide to alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonates.
- high-pressure in the context of this disclosure refers to pressures in excess of 5 bar, more preferably in excess of 20 bar.
- the most suitable fuel for combustion may be the same fuel used in the associated hydrocarbon fuel combustion, gasification or reforming process, carbon dioxide emissions from which are to be subject to the mineral carbonation process of this invention.
- a mineral carbonation plant should desirably be sited close to the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal silicate mine or quarry. Where the site of the mineral carbonation plant is remote from the associated carbonaceous or hydrocarbonaceous fuel combustion, gasification or reforming process plant, the carbon dioxide has to be transported to the mineral carbonation plant via pipelines or the like and the option of using low grade or waste heat from the said associated plant is not available.
- the associated hydrocarbon fuel combustion, gasification or reforming process may comprise or form part of a coal, oil or gas-fired electricity generation plant, ammonia or other chemical manufacturing plant, Portland cement plant or the like. Most commonly the said associated plant will be an electricity generation plant, most commonly a coal-fired electricity generation plant.
- the carbonaceous or hydrocarbonaceous fuel used in the combustion, gasification, reforming or electricity generation plant comprises at least 20 %, preferably 20-100 %, of fuel derived from renewable biomass, thus providing an overall process for the net removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere while providing thermal or electrical energy or hydrogen for utilisation in downstream energetic processes.
- the carbonaceous or hydrocarbonaceous fuel that is combusted to provide thermal energy to the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal silicate feedstock may advantageously comprise at least 20 %, preferably 20-100 %, of fuel derived from renewable biomass. This provides a process of thermal activation that does not produce excessive additional carbon dioxide from the mineral carbonation process itself.
- renewable biomass fuel is particularly suited to this thermal activation process since temperatures below about 800 degrees Celsius are required.
- oxygen or oxygen enriched air may be fed into the heating vessel to provide a flue stream made up largely of carbon dioxide and water that may be fed back into the mineral carbonation plant for sequestration of the carbon dioxide.
- the most preferable alkali metal or alkaline earth metal silicate feedstock is serpentine or one of its polymorphs.
- feedstocks drawn from the group comprising serpentine and any of its polymorphs antigorite, lizardite or chrysotile, olivine, brucite, dunite, peridotite, , forsterite, wollastonite, talc, harzburgite, and mixtures thereof may be used in the present invention.
- the feedstock will be subjected to comminution by crushing and/or grinding subsequent to its extraction.
- Comminution to the final desired particle size distribution for the carbonation reaction may be done either before or after the direct thermal heating step.
- the said final desired particle size distribution for the carbonation reaction is about 75 microns or less. It may be advantageous to perform comminution to a size of about 200 microns or less prior to said direct combustion heating followed by subsequent further comminution to the said final desired particle size distribution for the carbonation reaction.
- Such subsequent grinding may advantageously be done in a wet grinding process with the activated feedstock mixed with the solvent slurry prior to the mineral carbonation step.
- the most preferable process involves pre-heating of the silicate feedstock using one or more heating vessels utilising heat recovered from the exothermic carbonation reaction, which will generally be at temperatures below 200 degrees Celsius, more commonly below about 150 degrees Celsius. Further heating may be achieved utilising low-grade heat recovered from an associated hydrocarbon fuel combustion, gasification or reforming plant, as described. Finally, and essentially for this process, the pre-heated silicate feedstock is heated in a suitable heating vessel to its required activation temperature of between about 580 and 800 degrees Celsius. These temperatures are considerably lower than those typically employed in calcining operations, making the use of such a heating vessel more energy efficient and allowing lower cost refractory materials to be used in its construction.
- Suitable heating vessels include rotary kilns and shaft or tower kilns.
- the most energy efficient designs such as multistage counter-current regenerative shaft or tower kilns, are preferred. It has been found that the most energy efficient designs used in other industrial applications such as the calcining of lime are particularly advantageous when suitably modified for application in the current invention.
- Such designs include fluidised bed kilns or alternatively rotary kilns with axial combustion chambers and multiple co-axial calcining chambers.
- the lower temperatures required for the activation of the silicate feedstock in the current application as compared to conventional calcining enable considerable reductions in the design requirements of such kilns. This enables both capital and operational cost savings to be achieved in employing this type of unit.
- Agitation of the mineral feedstock in the heating vessel is beneficial to the process of activation of the feedstock and may advantageously be employed in the heating vessel.
- Such agitation may be applied via rotation in rotary kilns, preferably in the presence of some additional grinding and/or agitation media such as steel balls.
- some agitation may be obtained via counter-current gas flow in shaft or tower kilns or fluidised bed furnaces, again preferably in the presence of some additional grinding and/or agitation media.
- Transport of the mineral feedstock through pipes or chambers in the heating vessel may alternatively be achieved by two-phase fluid/solid flow, said fluids comprising either gases or liquids.
- the carrier gas provides agitation and efficient heat transfer which may be enhanced by high gas flow rates during transport of said mineral feedstock through the heating vessel.
- aqueous media are preferred, with the most preferable media comprising those used in the carbonation step; namely weakly acidic aqueous or mixed aqueous and/or saline or other liquid solvents.
- the solvents may be chosen from any of water, weak acids such as those known in the prior art for example acetic acid, oxalic acid, ascorbic acid, phthalic acid, orthophosphoric acid, citric acid, formic acid or salt solutions of such weak acids, saline solutions, aqueous saline and sodium bicarbonate solutions, potassium bicarbonate solutions, mixed aqueous and alcohol solutions such as aqueous ethanol or methanol solutions, mixed aqueous and glycol solutions, mixed aqueous and glycerol solutions, or any combination thereof.
- weak acids such as those known in the prior art for example acetic acid, oxalic acid, ascorbic acid, phthalic acid, orthophosphoric acid, citric acid, formic acid or salt solutions of such weak acids, saline solutions, aqueous saline and sodium bicarbonate solutions, potassium bicarbonate solutions, mixed aqueous and alcohol solutions such as aqueous ethanol or methanol solutions, mixed aqueous and glyco
- the ratio of liquids to solids in the direct thermal activation stage be kept low, and usually lower than that employed in the carbonation step in order to reduce thermal energy requirements in raising the slurry to its desired temperature range of between about 580 and 800 degrees Celsius for mineral activation. Under these conditions the liquids will generally be superheated.
- the presence of the liquid carrier assists in the dehydroxylation of the silicate feedstock, by providing efficient heat transfer, turbulent flow and some dissolution of the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal and by assisting disruption of silica layers.
- the thermal energy supplied to the heating vessel may be reduced via recycling of the carrier fluid through said heating vessel.
- the solid mineral feedstock may be substantially separated from the carrier fluid after exiting the heating vessel and then recycled to carry more mineral feedstock through the heating vessel, thus maintaining most of the thermal energy of the heated fluid.
- Substantial solid/fluid separation may be achieved by well-known process methods such as gravity separation, centrifugal separation or filtration.
- process units such as kilns, furnaces or other heating vessels, comminution processes and reaction vessels referred to in this specification is not limited to any particular number of such vessels.
- Plural such units may be employed, either in series or parallel, in order to provide the required process throughput for any particular mineral carbonation facility.
- process units such as kilns, furnaces or other heating vessels, comminution processes and reaction vessels referred to in this specification is not limited to any particular number of such vessels.
- Plural such units may be employed, either in series or parallel, in order to provide the required process throughput for any particular mineral carbonation facility.

- Plural such units may be employed, either in series or parallel, in order to provide the required process throughput for any particular mineral carbonation facility.
- serpentine would need to be processed annually. This requires a facility processing in excess of 100 kilotonne
- the activated feedstocks are suspended in weakly acidic aqueous or mixed aqueous and/or saline or other solvents prior to the carbonation step.
- aqueous solvent system described by O'Connor et al. comprising an aqueous saline solution with sodium bicarbonate may be employed.
- suitable solvents that have been identified by workers in this field include potassium bicarbonate solutions.
- the said activated feedstocks suspended in the solvents are contacted with supercritical, liquefied or high-pressure gaseous carbon dioxide in highly turbulent or rapidly dispersive or attritive reaction vessels to substantially convert the carbon dioxide to carbonates.
- pressures in the range 10-200 bar, more preferably 50-160 bar and temperatures in the range 10-250 degrees Celsius, more preferably 10-175 degrees Celsius are employed in the reaction vessels.
- Suitable reaction vessels may comprise high-pressure agitated vessels, pipeline reactors or the like, or more preferably, high velocity reaction vessels to promote turbulence, rapid mixing and attrition of the said activated feedstocks.
- Fluidised bed reactors such as described by Park and Fan, particularly with the addition of grinding media, may be advantageously employed.
- the process as described by Park and Fan of elevating the pH in said reaction vessel to facilitate precipitation of the carbonates may be advantageously applied.
- a process for long-term sequestration of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into solid alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonates whereby, after mining of feedstock that comprise alkali metal or alkaline earth metal silicates, comminution and direct thermal activation of said feedstock, the activated feedstock are suspended in a solvent slurry comprising solvents that are miscible with liquid carbon dioxide and/or capable of increased dissolution of carbon dioxide and are contacted with carbon dioxide in reaction vessels to substantially convert the carbon dioxide to alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonates.
- the solvents may be chosen from any of water, weak acids such as those known in the prior art for example acetic acid, oxalic acid, ascorbic acid, phthalic acid, orthophosphoric acid, citric acid, formic acid or salt solutions of such weak acids, saline solutions, aqueous saline and sodium bicarbonate solutions, potassium bicarbonate solutions, mixed aqueous and alcohol solutions such as aqueous ethanol or methanol solutions, mixed aqueous and glycol solutions, mixed aqueous and glycerol solutions or any combinations thereof.

- Another application of this invention may be in the sequestration of carbon dioxide drawn from dilute streams or directly from the atmosphere in order to reduce the carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere to mitigate the effects of global warming and climate change.
- Lackner et al. presented a conceptual outline of such a process showing that from physical considerations it is feasible to construct structures to absorb substantial quantities of carbon dioxide from the air. They do not present any detailed chemical process for the absorption and solidification of the carbon dioxide except to name the use of calcium oxide as a possible substrate. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the processes such as those disclosed in the current invention may be adapted and used for such absorption and solidification of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Key aspects and the associated process improvements and applications disclosed herein may be employed in such processes.
- Atmospheric carbon dioxide may be concentrated prior to reaction, for example via such capture and concentration processes described by Lackner et al. or may be sequestered in dilute form, including direct reaction with atmospheric carbon dioxide. In the latter case, the sequestration may proceed more slowly than in high-pressure reaction vessels, nevertheless using suitably activated alkali or alkali earth metal silicates such as serpentine and/or suitably selected slurry solvents to convert the carbon dioxide to carbonates.
- Systems of open vessels, fields, slurry dams, absorption towers, aerated stockpiles or heap leach arrangements containing the activated serpentine or other alkali or alkali-earth metal silicate mixed with such solvents may be employed in this application
- Such vessels, fields, slurry dams, absorption towers or aerated stockpiles or heap leach arrangements may be designed to optimally expose the activated mineral to carbon dioxide, preferably dissolved as carbonic acid in aqueous media, via systems of sprays, atomizers, or channels.
- the reacted mineral, in the form of carbonates, should be periodically removed to allow exposure of unreacted mineral to the carbon dioxide or carbonic acid/aqueous flows.
- reacted layers may be periodically scraped off the exposed surfaces of said stockpiles.
- the removed material comprising carbonates may then be transported for disposal, such disposal being advantageously back in mined-out areas of the mineral feedstock mine or quarry.
- Such enhancement may be obtained via means known in the prior art, for example via the addition of enzyme catalysts such as carbonic anhydrase to the aqueous media as described by Dziedzic et al.
- the enzyme catalyst would be recycled.
- Figure 1 illustrates a generalised flow diagram of the invention. It shows a process for activation of an alkali earth metal silicate ore, in this case largely serpentine ore, using the methodology of this invention. It shows a mine or quarry (1) where the ore is extracted, an associated combustion, gasification, reforming or electricity generation plant (2) whose carbon dioxide emissions are to be sequestered and a stream (3) containing the said carbon dioxide entering a mineral carbonation plant (5) designed according to the methodology of this invention.
- the serpentine ore is crushed and ground in comminution circuits (6) to a particle size of less than 75 microns and fed into a series of heat exchangers for activation.
- the first optional heat exchanger (7) utilises heat drawn from maintaining the carbonation reactor (8) at a temperature of 120 -150 degrees Celsius drawing heat from the exothermic carbonation reaction within the said reactor.
- the second optional heat exchanger (9) utilises low grade heat drawn from an available low grade heat source (4) in the associated combustion, gasification, reforming or electricity generation plant (2), in this case further raising the temperature of the serpentine ore to around 300 degrees Celsius.
- the final and essential heating vessel (10) comprises a hydrocarbonaceous fuel-fired furnace, kiln or similar combustion chamber to provide direct thermal activation of the ore raising its temperature to around 580 to 800 degrees Celsius.
- the activated ore is mixed with a solvent (11) prior to entering the carbonation reactor vessel (8).
- the carbonation reaction (8) vessel may advantageously utilise agitation and attrition, either via mechanical means or flow-induced.
- the solvents (11) are aqueous mixtures of water with weak acids, and/or salts and/or sodium bicarbonate.
- the carbon dioxide-containing stream (3) is compressed via compressor (12) to a liquid form or to a pressure in excess of 150 bar prior to entering said carbonation reactor vessel (8).
- the solid carbonate and silica residues (13) are withdrawn for final disposal back to the mine or quarry (1) and the recovered solvents (14) are reused in the process.
- the process illustrated in Figure 1 has been demonstrated to be economically viable for the permanent solidification of 14.1 Mt per annum of carbon dioxide emissions from a standard conventional pulverised fuel electricity generation plant in Australia.
- the power station has four 660 MW generators that export about 15500 GWh per annum to the electricity grid and consumes 6.4 Mt per annum of black coal.
- the process shown in Figure 1 achieves close to 100% permanent carbon dioxide sequestration with about 41 Mt per annum of serpentine and additional coal consumption of 0.9 Mt per annum in the fuel- fired furnaces that activate the serpentine.
- Delivered electricity from the electricity generation plant would be reduced to 96.6% of the original supply without sequestration due to the requirement to supply electricity for the comminution of the serpentine.
- the process will avoid 14.1 Mt carbon dioxide at a cost of about Australian dollars A$22 per tonne of carbon dioxide. In terms of electricity generation costs, the penalty of nearly 100% carbon dioxide sequestration using this process has been demonstrated to be about 2.1 c/kWh.
