Abstract
A method/system for sequestering carbon dioxide from cement and lime production facilities wherein carbon dioxide from flue gases originating from cement or lime production facilities is recovered and transported to a building materials production facility where it is sequestered.
Claims17
A system comprising:
- (1) a cement kiln comprising a flue gas exit;
- (2) an apparatus operably connected to the flue gas exit configured to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) in the flue gas into transportable form;
- (3) a transport apparatus for transporting the CO2;
- (4) a building materials facility configured to use the CO2 in a concrete or concrete component in such a manner as to permanently sequester the CO2;
- and
- (5) a transport path connecting the cement kiln and the building materials facility.
