Global Carbon Dioxide Removal Potential of Waste Materials From Metal and Diamond Mining

Global Carbon Dioxide Removal Potential of Waste Materials From Metal and Diamond Mining

There is growing urgency for CO2 removal strategies to slow the increase of, and potentially lower, atmospheric CO2 concentrations. Enhanced weathering, whereby the natural reactions between CO2 and silicate minerals that produce dissolved bicarbonate ions are accelerated, has the potential to remov...
