Abstract:In this paper, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) was investigated as a tool for analyzing changes on mineral grains (siderite and ankerite) caused by dissolution and precipitation processes. Carbon dioxide capture and sequestration is a technique investigated for its possible employment in the reduction of the amount of anthropogenic CO 2 gas emitted into the atmosphere. Deep saline aquifers are one option for storing CO 2 gas streams produced, e.g. by the combustion of fossil fuels at … Show more
“…All of these elements, with the exception of Si and Al, belong to the cations in the mineral crystals. Thus, the 1 location of the spectra in the scores plot is mainly based on the mineral cation composition.…”

“…Sometimes the addition of isotope-labeled CO 2 or other chemicals allows a quantification of the reaction progress (e.g. mineral dissolution) [1,2]. To understand mineral precipitation reactions, the additionally precipitated or altered mineral phases are analyzed.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
