Mineral carbonation using alkaline wastes is an attractive approach to CO 2 utilization. Owing to the difference between waste CO 2 and feedstock CO 2 , developing CO 2 utilization technologies without CO 2 purification and pressurization is a promising concept. This study investigated a potential method for CO 2 utilization via direct aqueous carbonation of synthesized concrete fines under atmospheric pressure and low CO 2 concentration. The carbonation reaction with different solid-liquid ratios and different concentrations of introduced CO 2 was examined in detail. Under basic conditions, a CO 2 uptake of 0.19 g-CO 2 /g-concrete fines demonstrated that direct aqueous carbonation of concrete fines under atmospheric pressure and low CO 2 concentration is effective. The CaCO 3 concentration, degree of carbonation, and reaction mechanism were clarified. Furthermore, characterization of the carbonated products was used to evaluate ways of utilizing the carbonated products.
