Abstract

See full text

Disclosed are methods for seawater softening for the desalination plants (thermal and membrane) by using the carbon mineralization (CM) technique. Disclosed are several process flow diagrams in which the carbon mineralization is integrated at the upstream and/or downstream of the thermal and membrane desalination processes. By using these methods, the released CO2 from industrial factories, seawater feed minerals solutes shall be removed to improve the performance of the desalination plants. Most importantly, valuable products such as Ca/Mg carbonates and BaSO4, which are being used in building rocks, concrete, cement, paints, plastic, etc., can be produced.
