n the proposed study, mineral carbonation of the fly ash from one of the
polish power plants burning brown coal was performed at laboratory scale.
Conditions for this process were: pressure range 4-16 bar and temperature
323 K. For the experiment one fly ash was used. In one experimental set
raw form of fly ash was used. In the second experimental set in analogical
conditions, the same fly ash was used, but specially, “artificially” prepared
for the experiment. Preparation of fly ash included heating of fly ash in
air in elevated temperatures to decompose formed carbonates (result of
atmospheric carbon dioxide reaction with eg.: non-reacted calcium oxide from
desulphurisation process) and experimentally check and compare the results
for such prepared material in correlation to raw fly ash from the same source.
Laboratory investigations proved that the carbon dioxide uptake is increasing
with pressure in both analysed cases. “Artificial” preparation of fly ash for the
experiments did not result in increase of CO
2
uptake. The results indicate that
no special preparation of fly ash is needed in order to use it as a material for
CO2 utilisation.
