  • Publication number: 20240351901
    Abstract: Systems and methods for using calcium oxide as a carbon dioxide capture tool. The calcium oxide is repeatedly formed from calcium carbonate and is reacted with calcium dioxide back to calcium carbonate where liberated calcium dioxide from calcination of the calcium carbonate is done in a flash calciner and liberated carbon dioxide is captured using a different carbon capture methodology. This method allows for carbon dioxide capture at a location where other methodologies would not be useable and where the stable and generally safe nature of calcium carbonate allows for efficient transport of captured carbon dioxide.
