To build the effective carbonation process for social implementation, the improving the yield and crystal quality of carbonates are essential during the reactive crystallization between CO2 in exhaust gas and Ca・Mg in industrial wastes.
In the case where CO2 fine bubbles are applied to the reactive crystallization of Ca・Mg carbonates, Ca2+ and Mg2+ accumulate because of the negative charge on the fine bubble surface, and the CO32– concentration becomes higher due to the acceleration of the CO2 mass transfer caused by minimizing the bubble diameter. Hence, the local supersaturation regions near the minute gas-liquid interfaces can be utilized to the enhanced production and the quality control of Ca・Mg carbonates. Additionally, the Ca・Mg carbonates which controlled crystal quality are convertible to inorganic phosphors with superior luminescent properties for upgrading.
