Abstract: 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.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to a new and innovative system, process and method that utilize a new “non-oxygen type of oxidizers” process for methane (CH4) upgrading to value-added products such as olefins and aromatics (i.e., benzene, toluene and xylene (BTX)) etc. and further removing toxic impurities such as sulphur-containing compounds (i.e. H2S) by using the sulphur as a source of radical.

Abstract: The principal approaches to reducing the effects of global warming seek to slow the increase in atmospheric CO2 levels as a result of fossil fuel combustion for energy production and transportation. A process for hybrid carbon capture and mineralization are disclosed. The process utilizes both flue gas from (e.g., power plants) and reject brine from (e.g., desalination process). The process includes providing flue gas to react with an amine solution to produce carbamate; processing the carbamate in a reactor to regenerate amine and to produce a carbonate; treating reject brine to provide a ready-made brine for carbonation reaction; and processing the carbamate with salt from treating the brine to produce a carbonate.
