Carbon mineralization with concurrent critical metal recovery from olivine
2022
Overview
Carbon dioxide utilization for enhanced metal recovery (EMR) during mineralization has been recently developed as part of CCUS (carbon capture, utilization, and storage). This paper describes fundamental studies on integrating CO₂ mineralization and concurrent selective metal extraction from natural olivine. Nearly 90% of nickel and cobalt extraction and mineral carbonation efficiency are achieved in a highly selective, singlestep process. Direct aqueous mineral carbonation releases Ni2+ and Co2+ into aqueous solution for subsequent recovery, while Mg2+ and Fe2+ simultaneously convert to stable mineral carbonates for permanent CO₂ storage. This integrated process can be completed in neutral aqueous solution. Introduction of a metal-complexing ligand during mineral carbonation aids the highly selective extraction of Ni and Co over Fe and Mg. The ligand must have higher stability for Ni-/Co- complex ions compared with the Fe(II)-/Mg- complex ions and divalent metal carbonates. This single-step process with a suitable metal-complexing ligand is robust and utilizes carbonation processes under various kinetic regimes. This fundamental study provides a framework for further development and successful application of direct aqueous mineral carbonation with concurrent EMR. The enhanced metal extraction and CO₂ mineralization process may have implications for the clean energy transition, CO₂ storage and utilization, and development of new critical metal resources.
