Abstract

A method of exhaust gas scrubbing includes providing recycled concrete fines as a waste material rich in carbonatable Ca and/or Mg phases and with d90≤1000 μm and a Rosin-Rammler slope n from 0.6 to 1.4 , injecting the waste material into an exhaust gas stream containing CO2 and/or SOx for reaction with CO2 and/or SOx at a relative humidity of 50 to 100 Vol.-% and a temperature from 40 to 130° C. in an amount of dry waste material ranging from 5 to 30 kg/m3, withdrawing a partly carbonated and/or sulphurized waste material and purified exhaust gas, and recycling a part of the partly carbonated and sulphurized waste material while the remainder is discharged, as well as use of a waste material slurry for exhaust gas cleaning of CO2 and/or SOx.
