DISSOCIATION OF - CO2

DISSOCIATION OF - CO2WHAT TOPIC IN RESEARCH PAPERS IS NEVER DISCUSSED ?
What kind of - CO2 - is bonded to - oxide metals ?

It's a good question - right ?
Of course.
All because there's diff kinds of Co2 - even food grade, vs fuel emmissions, or organics.


Most - burn the metal carbonate and simply measure weight pre and post to determine what they burnt off and thus.. x factor in weight loss is = carbon + oxygen gas release.

Yet.. if one backtracked and asked the question - 
Could the carbon be an ( organic carbon ) bonded to 3 oxygen ?
I would make that bet and say... yes.

MgCO3
Mg metal present
Carbon  present
3 Oxygen present

The molecular bond has the magnesium distant from the carbon 
whereas, the magnesium is attached to one oxygen
carbon associated to 2 oxygen and the magnesium oxygen.

What i set out this eve to find was...
How to break the bond of the carbon with oxygen without using - acids.
Tough subject... all because the easiest way to imparet the bonds is - acids or another product already bonded to a base or alkai in which to perform a swap.


QUESTION IS PUT FORTH -
Can one use a non acid and dissociate the co2 from mgco3 ?
Wink.

OZONE WATER
H2O3

NEW FORMULA 
MgCO3 + H2O3 = Mg(HCO3)2

Magnesium tied to - ( HCO3 ) 2
What is this ?
The hydrogen bond is now the dominant over the CO3 ( 2 )
BICARBONATE
MAGNESIUM  BICARBONATE

WHAT HAPPENS IF - H2O ( WATER ) IS ADDED ?
If water is introduced back into the NEW equation what happens ?

Mg( HCO3 ) 2 + H20 = Mg(OH)2 + H2CO3

Magnesium hydroxide is created
Hydrogen bonds to the CO3 ( hydrogen sequestration )

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These formulas were extrapolated by analyzing numerous ( other ) formulas unrelated to mgco3
Nor ozone...

In short...
extremely hard to arrive at an answer - because - not many papers deal in - ozone.
They like the acids....lol

Why would this formula arrive at an end result of, Mg hydroxide ?
It's the power of the high oxygen oxidant in the ozone water. 
Triple bond.
Oxygen is highly oxadative - corrosive.

So... backtrsting the formula... ?
I did manage to find the equation online - that states -
Mg( HCO3 ) 2 + H20 = Mg(OH)2 + H2CO3

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mg(HCO3)2 + H2O = Mg(OH)2 + H2CO3 - ChemicalAid

 
Balance the reaction of Mg(HCO3)2 + H2O = Mg(OH)2 + H2CO3 using this chemical equation ... Mg(HCO3)2 + H2O = Mg(OH)2 + H2CO3 might be a redox reaction

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I would assume if one ground the Mg Co3 into nano fines the reaction would accelerate the procedure. 

Logic dictates -
Bombarding the water with more ( oxygen ) infusing water with more oxidation power
increases the oxidative effects and acts similar to an acid -
This forcing a breakdown or swap out in redox action - whereas, conversion play out.
Hydrogen takes the load of ( carbon ) off of magnesium.
And Hdrogen creates a double carbon oxygen bond.
Leaving the Magnesium in a water solubilized state - Magnesium Hydroxide.

Since both are still in an aqueous medley
Here is where electrolysis is introduced.
Pulling out the magnesium hydroxide in metal form...
The double carbon tied to hydrogen - most likely a carbonic acid.

But... what would happen to the Hydrogen still bonded to a double carbon under low current
while the magnesium electrolysis was performed ?
Would the Hydrogen release the double carbon bond ?
Would hydrogen off gas ?
Would Hydrogen kepe the double carbon bond ?

I would think... one would have to super saturate enough magnesium carbonate
in ozone water to the point of, ful lsaturation - full bond - whereas, no more magnesium
carbonate could bond. All molecules accounted for - leaving no extra bonds available...?


Numerous other reports discussed -
Using Magnesium Carbonate for - co2 sequestering.
Yeah.. .they're eyeing up mangeisum due to its remarkable ability to hold the co2.
Such a waste, though.

Again... i set out to find a way to impart - co2 - from the mineral bond.
I strongly beleive it's an organic carbon.
I even tried researching - microwaving the - co2 - in which to cast off the co2 from the Mgo.
Sonic, accustic, ultrasound, microwave...etc

I also researched... tungsten carbide.
How a carbon is introduced back into a metal alloy to harden the metal.

And asked myself  the question....
Could the co2 be left in the - mgco3 -
and perform a low heat melt under 600 degrees keeping the co3 with in ?
And would it create a carbon magnesium metal alloy ?
There is zippola on this subject.

I also researched... at what temp does c02 impart ?
Some studies found the co2 can impart at 300 degrees... but all dependent upon the kind
of Mgco3 - hydrous form, versus less hydrous - ( some Mgco3 contain more water )

I also researched.... Mgo andit's ability to retain - hydrogen.
Many articles stated - can't be done.

So.. given the wee bit of knowledge i have on - Nano - turns out... Mgo in nano form, can
dissolve in water (portion of ) and forms a magnesium hydride. They indiced it with chloride.
I was hoping they would tweak it with temps or shape of nano knowing temps induce reactions and shapes ( anglualr ) can promote the breaking and rebonding of molecules.
There you go... hydrogen bonding not to a metal magnesium, but rather, - simple Mgo.
But.. .only certain percentages.
I would love to see more research in this area.

As for - Ozone + Mgco3 ?
Wouldn't be that hard to perform a test with Mgco3 nano + Ozone water. ( maybe slightly heated )
If found conclusive.
It would be a super " GREEN " extraction method.
While dealing with the co2 - without off gassing.  Hydrogen bond keeps it intact.
What i don't know is... if one reduced the Hydrogen + co2 bond...  what would occur ?

Once the Magneium was pulled via electrolysis -
discharge the Hydrogen co2 water bond... perofrm a low heat evaporation - would reduce to a
carbon hydride ?

Would the oxygen off gas, or keep its bond alongwith the hydrogen to the carbon ?
I haven't that answer.

 
So... is this method worthy of a try ?
If it did work... it would put the $100 furnace idea to shame...lol
And.. would be also be better than using HCL for a quickswap conversion.

Waht was the formula for HCl ?
MgCO3 + hcL = MgCl2 - H2o + Co2
Still a good format and far cheaper than, furnace route.
One would have to dela with the co2 off gassing capture.

Costs of HCl vs Ozone Water ?
One could make their own ozone water - saving big $$$$  on HCl costs.

I stress...
the ozone formula i devised....
was confirmed online in link above - in terms of, outcome.

I'm no chemist... but, it's looks like it would work.
Wouldn't hurt to give it a try.
Could be an ideal formula on the cheap...



Cheers....
