The SEDAC hub, which includes Calcite and 8 Rivers along with its partners, was awarded $20.5M to complete FEED studies required to support the construction and operation of two DAC facilities, each with an initial capture capacity of 50,000 net DAC tonnes of CO 2. JX’s investment will also support additional technology derisking at Calcite ...
The Department of Energy also recently named 8 Rivers as one of 24 semifinalists in its Carbon Dioxide Removal Purchase Pilot Prize, which will provide Carbon Dioxide Removal Credit Purchase Agreements from the DOE to 8 Rivers’ Calcite technology.

[2] [3] Calcite is the more stable form of CaCO 3 and is less soluble in water under standard temperature and pressure than aragonite, with a solubility product constant (K sp) of 10 −8.48 compared to 10 −8.28 for aragonite. [4] This means that a greater proportion of aragonite will dissolve in water, producing calcium (Ca 2+) and carbonate ...
The discovery of dolomite rock, or dolostone, was first published in 1791 [8] and has been found across the Earth's crust from various different time periods. [9] Because the rock is made of calcium, magnesium, and carbonate ions, the mineral crystalline structure can be visualized similar to calcite and magnesite. [10]
Calcium-containing rocks include calcite, dolomite, phosphate, and gypsum. [8] Rocks slowly dissolve by physical and chemical processes, carrying calcium ions into rivers and oceans. Calcium ions (Ca 2+ ) and magnesium ions (Mg 2+ ) have the same charge (+2) and similar sizes, so they react similarly and are able to substitute for each other in ...
Micro calcite rafts have been observed on (soda) straw stalactites solution drops suspended beneath concrete structures. These secondary deposits which form outside the cave environment, are known as calthemites. [8] They are derived from concrete, lime or mortar, and mimic the shapes and forms of speleothems created in caves. [9] [8]
The remaining weight consists of silicas (quartz, chalcedony and kaolinite), carbonates (calcite, magnesite and dolomite), titanium dioxide and water. [31] Bauxites of economical interest must be low in kaolinite. [11] Formation of lateritic bauxites occurs worldwide in the 145- to 2-million-year-old Cretaceous and Tertiary coastal plains. [32]
