Albite feldspar dissolution kinetics as a function of the Gibbs free energy at high pCO2
We are currently measuring the dissolution kinetics of albite feldspar at 100℃ in the presence of high levels of dissolved CO2 (pCO2=9 MPa) as a function of the saturation state of the feldspar (Gibbs free energy of reaction, △G). The experiments are conducted using a flow through reactor, thereby allowing the dissolution reactions to occur at a fixed pH and at constant, but variable saturation states. Preliminary results indicate that at far-from-equilibrium conditions, the dissolution kinetics of albite are defined by a rate plateau,with R ≈ 5.0 × 10-10 mol m-2 s-1 at -70 <△G <-40 kJ mol-1. At △G >-40 kJ mol-1, the rates decrease sharply, revealing a strong inverse relation between the dissolution rate and free energy. Based on the experiments carried out to date, the dissolution rate-free energy data correspond to a highly non-linear and sigmoidal relation,in accord with recent studies.
