      Carbon sequestration via enhanced weathering of peridotites and basalts in seawater 

      Rigopoulos, I.; Harrison, A. L.; Delimitis, A.; Ioannou, I.; Efstathiou, A. M.; Kyratsi, Theodora; Oelkers, E. H. (2018)
      Enhanced weathering of mafic and ultramafic rocks has been suggested as a carbon sequestration strategy for the mitigation of climate change. This study was designed to assess the potential drawdown of CO2 directly from ...

      Effect of ball milling on the carbon sequestration efficiency of serpentinized peridotites 

      Rigopoulos, I.; Delimitis, A.; Ioannou, I.; Efstathiou, A. M.; Kyratsi, Theodora (2018)
      Mineral carbonation has been suggested as a safe carbon capture and storage (CCS) strategy for the mitigation of climate change. This study investigates the effect of ball milling on the CO2 sequestration capacity of ...

      Heterogeneity in nanocomposite hydrogels from poly(ethylene oxide) cross-linked with silicate nanoparticles 

      Schexnailder, P.; Loizou, Elena; Porcar, L.; Butler, P.; Schmidt, G. (2009)
      We investigate the influence of ionic strength on the structural heterogeneity and viscoelastic properties of nanocomposite hydrogels. We use small-angle scattering and rheology to monitor structural changes as a function ...

      On the potential use of quarry waste material for CO2 sequestration 

      Rigopoulos, Ioannis; Petallidou, Klito C.; Vasiliades, Michalis A.; Delimitis, Andréas; Ioannou, Ioannis; Efstathiou, Angelos M.; Kyratsi, Theodora (2016)
      The use of solid wastes rich in Ca2+, Mg2+ and Fe2+ for the ex situ sequestration of CO2 could provide an economically and technologically viable option for the reduction of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Here, we investigate ...
