| Abstract: | A highly reproducible seeded growth technique was used to study calcite crystallization from calcium bicarbonate solutions at 25??C and fixed carbon dioxide partial pressures between 0.03 and 0.3 atm. The results are not consistent with empirical crystallization models that have successfully described calcite growth at low PCO2 (< 10-3 atm). Good agreement was found between observed crystallization rates and those calculated from the calcite dissolution rate law and mechanism proposed by Plummer et al. (1978). ?? 1981. |
