Non-stabilized Argon Oxygen Decarburisation (AODNS) slag in powdered form was examined for its carbon dioxide sequestration capacity and for its potential utilization in the fabrication of high value building materials. The curing of the sample was carried out in two accelerated carbonation environments: i) in a carbonation chamber, maintained at atmospheric pressure, 22 °C, 5 vol.% CO₂ and 80% RH; and ii) in a carbonation reactor, where the CO₂ partial pressure (pCO₂) and temperature could be further increased. In the carbonation chamber, an average compressive strength of over 20 MPa, on a 64 cm …
