Carbonate looping is an innovative carbon capture technology that has significant implications for reducing CO 2 emissions in the cement industry, one of the largest producers of carbon dioxide globally. The process involves two main chemical reactions: the carbonation of a metal oxide (usually calcium oxide, CaO) to capture CO 2 and form calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) and the calcination of the calcium carbonate to release the captured CO 2 and regenerate the calcium oxide. This technology not only aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions but also enhances the sustainability of cement production processes.
