The main fuels in Poland are solid fuels - hard coal and lignite. Their combustion produces large quantities of waste, primarily fly ash. The ashes from lignite, due to the chemical and phase composition, and thus their properties, have - so far - limited economic use. Among their possible applications is the use of mineral sequestration of carbon dioxide - this is the result of their relatively high content of active CaO and MgO, which can react with carbon dioxide in aqueous suspensions. The paper presents maximum theoretical capacity of CO2 bonding for examined fly ashes and the results of the research on absorption of CO2 by the ash-water suspensions from fly ash resulting from the combustion of lignite from Pątnów and Turów power plants. Calculated for the examined fly ashes maximum theoretical capacity of CO2 bonding amounted to 14% for the ashes from Pątnów power plant and 14.4% for the fly ashes from Turów power plant. Studies have shown that most CO2 - 8.15 g/100 g of ash, was absorbed by suspension with ashes from Turów power plant with a mass ratio of ash to water of at 0.8:1. In the case of ash from Pątnów power plant absorption was lower and amounted to a maximum - 8.7 g CO2/100 g ash. The largest increase CO2 absorption was observed in the first 30 minutes of carbonation in the suspensions of fly ash from Pątnów power plant and the first 15 minutes in suspensions of fly ash from Turów power plant. After this time, the absorption has increased slowly. An increase in temperature in the chamber system, confirming the occurrence of the process of carbonation and its endothermic character. The highest temperature - 44.8 C recorded in the suspension with ashes from Turów power plant, which has also the greatest absorption of CO2. The results confirm the usefulness of these ashes to sequester carbon dioxide.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Evaluation of the possibilities of sequestration of carbon dioxide in aqueous suspensions of selected fly ash}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/85695/PDF/art-06-uliasz-bochenczyk-gawllicki-pomykala.pdf}, doi={10.2478/v10269-012-0011-5}, keywords={fly ashes from the combustion of lignite coal, CO2 mineral sequestration, CO2 absorption}, }
