Aspects of the invention include methods of removing carbon dioxide (CO) from a COcontaining gas. In some instances, the methods include contacting COcontaining gas with a bicarbonate buffered aqueous medium under conditions sufficient to produce a bicarbonate rich product. Where desired, the resultant bicarbonate rich product or a component thereof may then be stored or further processed, e.g., combined with a divalent alkaline earth metal cation, under conditions sufficient to produce a solid carbonate composition. Aspects of the invention further include systems for practicing the methods, as well as products produced by the methods.

Carbon sequestration methods and systems, and compositions produced thereby

Methods of producing solid COsequestering carbonate materials are provided. Aspects of the methods include introducing a divalent cation source into a flowing aqueous liquid (e.g., a bicarbonate rich product containing liquid) under conditions sufficient such that a non-slurry solid phase COsequestering carbonate material is produced. Also provided are systems configured for carrying out the methods.

Continuous carbon sequestration material production methods and systems for practicing the same

Methods of sequestering COfrom a gaseous source of COare provided. Aspects of the methods include employing an alkali enrichment protocol, such as a membrane mediated alkali enrichment protocol, in a COsequestration protocol. Also provided are systems for practicing the methods.

Alkali enrichment mediated COsequestration methods, and systems for practicing the same

Compositions comprising highly reflective microcrystalline/amorphous materials are provided. In some instances, the highly reflective materials are microcrystalline or amorphous carbonate materials, which may include calcium and/or magnesium carbonate. In some instances, the materials are COsequestering materials. Also provided are methods of making and using the compositions, e.g., to increase the albedo of a surface, to mitigate urban heat island effects, etc.
