Abstract
A process for sequestering carbon dioxide, which includes reacting a silicate based material with an acid to form a suspension, and combining the suspension with carbon dioxide to create active carbonation of the silicate-based material, and thereafter producing a metal salt, silica and regenerating the acid in the liquid phase of the suspension.

14. A process for sequestering carbon dioxide, comprising:
-
a) reacting a silicate based material with sulfuric acid to form a suspension;
b) reacting the suspension with a base to precipitate a metal hydroxide; and
c) combining said suspension with carbon dioxide, producing a metal carbonate and regenerating said sulfuric acid. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A process for sequestering carbon dioxide, comprising:
-
a) reacting a silicate based material with sulfuric acid, to form a suspension;
b) mixing calcium nitrate Ca(NO3)2 with said suspension;
c) precipitating the metal using calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2; and
combining the suspension with carbon dioxide to sequester the carbon dioxide, producing a metal salt and silica and possibly regenerating the sulfuric acid. - View Dependent Claims (21)
