Original Abstract Submitted
Carbon dioxide may be stored by mineralization. An example method thereof may include: providing a first solution including a first aqueous fluid having dispersed therein a metal salt and a metal catalyst; dispersing carbon dioxide gas in a second solution including a second aqueous fluid, wherein the carbon dioxide gas forms dissolved carbon dioxide; introducing an electrical current to the second solution; generating, using the electrical current, nanobubble carbon dioxide; combining at least a portion of the first solution and at least a portion of the second solution to form a combined solution; and generating mineralized carbon dioxide from the dissolved carbon dioxide and the nanobubble carbon dioxide, wherein the generating at least partially comprises catalytically reacting, using the metal catalyst, the metal salt and one or more of the dissolved carbon dioxide and the nanobubble carbon dioxide, thereby forming the mineralized carbon dioxide.
