Cross-species comparison of ultramafic rock bio-accelerated weathering performance [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCarbon mineralization sequesters atmospheric CO2 by reacting it with cations from rock weathering to form carbonates. However, natural rates are too slow, and acceleration with chemical or mechanical methods is expensive. Microbial processes (acidolysis,
