In order to investigate the re-carbonation behaviors of limestones in an oxy-circulating fluidized bed combustor (Oxy-CFBC), the re-carbonation characteristics of domestic 4 different limestone samples were analyzed in a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA-N1000) with the higher concentration of $CO_2$. Effect of reaction temperature ($600{\sim}900^{\circ}C$) and $CaCO_3$ content (77~95%) of limestones were determined and the mass change of the CaO was observed. Under the temperature of $800^{\circ}C$, the conversion rate increased with increasing reaction temperature. However, the conversion rate decreased with increasing reaction temperature over $800^{\circ}C$. In the case of $CaCO_3$ content, the conversion was remarkably different at $870^{\circ}C$. In addition, reaction rate equations for simulating the re-carbonation of limestone by using gas solid reaction models were proposed in this study.

This study presented the analytical evaluation model effective in the concrete structure repaired with a patching material. The model considered the effect of the repair material on carbon dioxide penetration into the repaired concrete as evaluating the remaining service life of the CO2-deteriorated concrete structure after repair. The diffusion profiles of carbon dioxide as well as the carbonated concrete were effectively able to be modelled with analytical method based on Fick's 1st diffusion law.

This study presented the analytical evaluation model effective in the concrete structure repaired with a patching material. The model considered the effect of the repair material on carbon dioxide penetration into the repaired concrete as evaluating the remaining service life of the CO2-deteriorated concrete structure after repair. The diffusion profiles of carbon dioxide as well as the carbonated concrete were effectively able to be modelled with analytical method based on Fick's 1st diffusion law. The evaluation of the model equation showed the good result and rational process quantitatively and numerically to evaluate the remaining service life of the repaired concrete structure after repair.
