In-situ carbonation technology represents a form of mineral carbonation that integrates CO₂ into the fabrication process of cementitious construction materials, capturing CO₂ as calcium carbonate(CaCO₃) through a reaction between calcium ions(Ca²⁺) and CO₂ released during cement hydration. This investigation examines the application of in-situ carbonation technology to a variety of floor dry cement mortar formulations commonly used in local construction projects. It assesses the effects of varying the CO₂ injection flow rate and total volume of CO₂ injected. Additionally, the study evaluates the impact of reducing the quantity of cement used as a binder on the final product's quality.

In this study, in CO₂ sequestration was carried out through pressure carbonation for concrete slurry water to realize carbon neutrality in the cement industry. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that as the pressure of CO₂ increased, the pH decreased and the amount of CaCO₃ produced increased. However, despite the CO₂ pressure of 5 bars, the carbonation reaction for 10 minutes alone did not proceed completely.

The carbonation process is affected both by the concrete material properties such as W/C ratio, types of cement and aggregated, admixture characteristics and the environmental factors such as CO2 concentration, temperature, humidity. Based on results of preliminary research on carbonation, this study is to propose a carbonation prediction model by taking into account of prediction model by taking into account of CO2 concentration and W/C ratio among major factors affecting the carbonation process.

This study wa s conducted a s pa rt of ma ximizing the use of ca rbon dioxide by a pplying CCU(Ca rbon Ca pture, Utiliza tion) a mong technologies for reducing CO₂ in the cement industry. In a carbon dioxide curing environment, changes in carbonation depth and changes in basic physical properties by age due to the mixing of carbonation reaction accelerators were usually targeted at Portland cement paste. In addition, in order to check the fixed amount of CO₂ in the concrete field, a thermal analysis method was applied to evaluate CaCO₃ decarbonization at high temperatures. As a result of the evaluation, it was confirmed that the carbonation depth in the cured body significantly increased due to the incorporation of CRA in the carbonation depth diffusion performance. In addition, it was confirmed that the weight reduction rate increased by 23.8 % and 40.77 %, respectively, compared to Plain, in the order of curing conditions for constant temperature and humidity and curing conditions for carbonation chambers, so it was confirmed that the amount of excellent CaCO₃ produced by the addition of CRA increased as the concentration of CO₂ increased.

In this study, an accelerated carbonation process was applied to stabilize hazardous heavy metals of industrial solid waste incineration (ISWI) bottom ash and fly ash, and to reduce $CO_2$ emissions. The most commonly used method to stabilize heavy metals is accelerated carbonation using a high water-to-solid ratio including oxidation and carbonation reactions as well as neutralization of the pH, dissolution, and precipitation and sorption. This process has been recognized as having a significant effect on the leaching of heavy metals in alkaline materials such as ISWI ash. The accelerated carbonation process with $CO_2$ absorption was investigated to confirm the leaching behavior of heavy metals contained in ISWI ash including fly and bottom ash. Only the temperature of the chamber at atmospheric pressure was varied and the $CO_2$ concentration was kept constant at 99% while the water-to-solid ratio (L/S) was set at 0.3 and $3.0dm^3/kg$. In the result, the concentration of leached heavy metals and pH value decreased with increasing carbonation reaction time whereas the bottom ash showed no effect. The mechanism of heavy metal-stabilization is supported by two findings during the carbonation reaction. First, the carbonation reaction is sufficient to decrease the pH and to form an insoluble heavy metal-material that contributes to a reduction of the leaching. Second, the adsorbent compound in the bottom ash controls the leaching of heavy metals; the calcite formed by the carbonation reaction has high affinity of heavy metals. In addition, approximately 5 kg/ton and 27 kg/ton $CO_2$ were sequestrated in ISWI bottom ash and fly ash after the carbonation reaction, respectively.

The present paper investigates the performance of direct wet mineral carbonation technology to fix carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) from relatively high $CO_2$ concentration feeding gas using wollastonite ($CaSiO_3$)-water (and 0.46 M acetic acid) suspension solution. To minimize the energy consumed on the process, the carbonation in this work is carried out at atmospheric pressure and slightly higher room temperature. As a result, carbon fixation is confirmed on the surface of $CaSiO_3$ after carbonation with wollastonite-water suspension solution and its amount is increased according to the $CO_2$ composition in the feeding gas. The leaching and carbonation ratio of wollastonite-water suspension system obtained from the carbonation with 50% of $CO_2$ composition feeding gas is 13.2% and 10.4%, respectively. On the other hand, the performance of wollastonite-acetic acid in the same condition is 63% for leaching and 1.39% for carbonation.

The increase of industrial carbonic dioxide emissions has accelerated the carbonation of reinforced concrete structures, which drops off their durability. Although advanced countries have already taken safety control measures against the carbonation of RC structures, it is still difficult now to accurately predict the actual carbonation depth. Additionally, it requires much time and efforts. Recently, it is possible to get the data more rapidly through accelerated carbonation test with the $CO_2$ concentration of 100%. In this paper, the carbonation test results obtained by two test methods such as the normal carbonation test method and the accelerated carbonation test method, were compared to investigate the carbonation characteristics of fly ash concrete. The accelerated carbonation test on concrete specimens with the pre-curing age of 180 days was also carried out to examine the carbonation characteristics of fly ash concrete at long-term age. Consequently, fly ash concrete at early age was vulnerable to carbonation and however, its carbonation resistance at long-term ages was improved compared with OPC concrete.

In this study, the compressive strength and carbonation properties of geopolymer paste according to the amount of alkali admixture added were evaluated for the development of geopolymer concrete that recycles industrial waste. A geopolymer paste specimen was prepared using Ca(OH)2 as an admixture, and the prepared specimen was standard cured for 28 days. After curing, the compressive strength of the specimen was measured. As the amount of alkali admixture increased, the compressive strength increased. After curing, carbonation was carried out for 7 days in a CO2 5% environment. As a result of comparative evaluation of the amount of CaCO3 produced according to carbonation, the amount of CaCO3 produced increased as the amount of Ca(OH)2 added increased. However, when the amount of admixture added exceeds 5%, the increase rate decreases, so the optimum addition rate is considered to be 5%.
