Abstract

This study investigates the improvement of the CO2 sequestration percentage of a ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBF-slag) with surface modification using a NaOH solution. The amount of CO2 sequestration of the GGBF slag increased via the surface modification with the NaOH solution in the direct carbonation method. The increase of the carbonation percentage of the GGBF slag resulted from the increase in the hydraulic activity of the GGBF-slag. The carbonation percentage on the basis of the total calcium oxide of the GGBF slag was approximately 10 times larger than that of the GGBF-slag without the surface-modification. The carbonation rate depended on the morphology of the calcium carbonates formed on the surface of the GGBF-slag.
