In theory, the cost of capturing CO2 could head to zero, since the resulting
magnesium carbonate formed from chemical reactions between cement plant emissions and rock can be sold at a profit to the wastewater and steel - making industries, Mercier said.

carbonate dissolves more easily than others.
