Abstract
Methods of the present disclosure may include obtaining an origin fluid having a calcium concentration of about 1.5 M or greater. A treatment fluid may be created by introducing an amount of slaked lime to the origin fluid to change a pH of the resulting treatment fluid to about 11 or greater. The treatment fluid may be introduced into a subterranean formation containing a formation gas comprising natural gas and carbon dioxide. The calcium in the treatment fluid may be allowed to react with the carbon dioxide within the subterranean formation to form calcite. The treated formation gas may be removed from the subterranean formation after the formation of calcite, wherein the concentration of carbon dioxide in the treated formation gas is lower than the formation gas before it was contacted with the treatment fluid.
