Solid-State Nmr Of Co2 Mineralization And Nmr Crystallography, Jinlei Cui Aug 2019

Solid-State Nmr Of Co2 Mineralization And Nmr Crystallography, Jinlei Cui

Arts & Sciences Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The work described in this dissertation has been accomplished by using solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) spectroscopy to investigate CO2 mineralization and to refine the positions of protons in the crystalline system. The reaction of forsterite (Mg2SiO4) and 13CO2 is presented here, which is measured using in-situ 13C NMR spectroscopy without removing the sample from the reactor. 29Si SSNMR is used to investigate the reaction of forsterite with 13CO2 in the presence of water or NaCl brine as a function of depth in the sample. Additionally, we also show that NMR crystallography can significantly improve structure refinement of hydrogens’ positions …
