Disclosed is a method for solidifying carbon dioxide into carbonate, in which carbon dioxide is stably converted into and solidified into carbonate (mineral facies) by using steel slag or natural mineral by extracting an alkali component by supplying an ammonium salt solvent as an extraction solvent to raw slag and injecting carbon dioxide into an extract solution supplied to a carbonation reactor to produce carbonate precipitate from the extract solution through the induction of a conversion reaction of the carbon dioxide into the carbonate precipitate. Then after the above two step are performed at least one an acetic acid solvent is supplied as an extraction solvent to the raw slag so as to finally extract an alkali component; and carbon dioxide is injected into an extract solution to produce carbonate precipitate from the extract solution through the induction of a conversion reaction of the carbon dioxide into the carbonate precipitate.

System and method for carbon dioxide solidification

The present invention provides an apparatus for solidifying and converting carbon dioxide into carbonate, comprising: an alkali component extraction reactor for extracting an alkali metal component from a raw slag; a carbonation reactor for injecting carbon dioxide into an alkali metal component solution containing the extracted alkali metal component to produce a carbonate precipitate from the alkali metal component solution; a first filtration device connected between the alkali component extraction reactor and the carbonation reactor to separate a post-treatment slag, from which the alkali component is extracted, from the alkali metal component solution; and a second filtration device connected between an inlet of the alkali component extraction reactor and an outlet of the carbonation reactor to separate the carbonate from the alkali metal component solution after the carbonation reaction.

Apparatus for solidifying and converting carbon dioxide into carbonate

Disclosed is a method for recovering carbon dioxide from exhaust gas, more particularly, a method for recovering carbon dioxide from exhaust gas for saving the cost for recovery of carbon dioxide by decreasing energy required for recycling a carbon dioxide absorbent solution. In particular, a circulating solvent, whose heat of vaporization and/or sensible heat is lower than that of a solvent of an absorbent solution introduced to a recycling tower, is supplied to the lower portion of the recycling tower and mixed with the heated absorbent solution. As a result, the pressure inside the recycling tower is maintained so that carbon dioxide released from the absorbent solution is discharged to a storage tank/drum.

Carbon dioxide recovery system and method of exhaust gas

A method and system of fixing carbon dioxide is provided. After metal ion components are extracted from, e.g., natural mineral or steel slag through acid treatment, carbon dioxide is injected to fix carbon dioxide by carbonating the same. Since the procedure of pH adjustment is unnecessary, the reaction is carried out effectively and a continuous process is enabled. Accordingly, the disclosed method of fixing carbon dioxide enables effective removal of carbon dioxide produced from the steelmaking industry, thereby significantly reducing greenhouse gas emission and allowing recycling of the discarded steel slag.

Method of fixing carbon dioxide

The present invention relates to a system fixing carbon dioxide. The system comprises a first reactor for extracting alkali metal components from a slag and a second reactor for carbonating the extracted alkali metal component with carbon dioxide. With this system, carbon dioxide can be fixed in a simpler and cost-effective manner.
