Provided is a method of preparing an activated mineral solution, which includes steps of pulverizing granite and/or vermiculite into a powder by grinding, subjecting the powder to an electrolysis treatment, dissolving the powder in an aqueous ammonia solution and an acidic solution to prepare a mixed solution, emitting ultrasonic waves on the mixed solution, introducing microorganisms onto the mixed solution, and neutralizing the mixed solution, in which the mineral is selected from the group consisting of Fe, Mg, Al, Ti, K, Ca, Mn, Nb, P, Na, Zn, V, Cr, Ni, Si, B, Cu, Li, Ga, Co, Sr, In, Rb, Sb, Ta, Y, and combinations thereof.

A system has conveyance segments arranged in series. Each segment has an infrared emitter directed towards a material bearing surface, and outlets of the segments are above inlets of subsequent segments. The segments are coupled to vibrators which are configured to convey a material from the inlet end to the outlet end of the segments. A system of this disclosure can be used to create lime or clinker with a substantial increase in efficiency, and without emitting any carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.

Divalent ions are extracted from solids by leaching to form a divalent ion-containing solution. The divalent ion-containing solution is subjected to concentration to form a concentrated divalent ion-containing solution. Precipitation of a divalent ion hydroxide salt is induced from the concentrated divalent ion-containing solution. In other cases, the concentrated divalent ion-containing solution is exposed to carbon dioxide to induce precipitation of a divalent ion carbonate salt.

A process for removing carbon dioxide from a material includes introducing the material onto a first segment of a conveyance system comprising the first segment and a second segment that is physically separated from the first segment, heating the material at the first segment for a first time using a first infrared emitter, conveying the material from the first segment to the second segment, and heating the material at the second segment for a second time using a second infrared emitter. The carbon dioxide removed from the material can be captured by a vacuum pump and stored, and the vacuum pump can maintain a partial pressure for the process. The process can be used to create lime and clinker with minimal CO2 emissions and to remove CO2 that is stored in various materials.
