- Abstract
- Ex situ mineralization of CO2 is a promising technology that employs Ca- and Mg-rich industrial wastes but it simultaneously produces end products. Although Mg is a major mineralization source, it can adversely impact carbonate precipitation and crystal stability during co-precipitation in combination with Ca2+. In this study, the effects of Mg2+ ions on the mineralization process and its products were investigated using precipitates formed at different aqueous concentrations of Mg2+. The final phases of the precipitates were quantitatively evaluated at the end of each process. The alterations undergone by the calcite crystals, which constituted the dominant carbonate phase in each experiment, were analyzed using a sophisticated crystallographic approach. Aragonite was detected at high Mg2+ concentrations (Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio of 2.00), although brucite was the sole phase of the Mg crystal. The increase in Mg2+ ion concentration induced the formation of an amorphous solid. The results revealed that a drastic transformation of the calcite lattice occurred when the ratio of Mg2+/Ca2+ exceeded 1.00, agreeing with the shifts observed in the calcite structure upon comparing the precipitates formed at the Mg2+/Ca2+ ratios of 1.00 and 2.00, wherein microstrain and crystallite sizes changed from 0.040 and 55.33 nm to 0.1533 and 12.35 nm, respectively. At a Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio of 2.00, 6.51% of the Ca2+ ions in the calcite structure were substituted by Mg2+, increasing the surface energy of the crystal and the solubility of the carbonate. Therefore, Mg2+ is a potential hindrance that can impede the precipitation of carbonates and increase instability at certain concentrations
