[0025] The method for carbon capture and storage using the above carbon capture and storage system specifically comprises the following steps: S1. When the exhaust gas needs to be decarbonized, the bypass valve is opened, and the exhaust gas is transported to the cooling tower through the flue gas conveying pipeline for seawater spraying. The seawater sprayed in the cooling tower is fully in contact with the flue gas and absorbs the heat brought by the flue gas, so that the flue gas is cooled to a range of 40-60°C; then, it flows into the absorption tower from the bottom of the absorption tower, contacts with the lean amine liquid sprayed in the absorption tower, and is absorbed by the lean amine liquid to form rich amine liquid and relatively pure gas, and the relatively pure gas is discharged from the exhaust port at the top of the absorption tower into the atmosphere or transported to the subsequent gas treatment unit.

[0026] S2. The rich amine liquid is heated to 95-110°C in the rich-lean liquid heat exchanger and then transported to the top of the desorption tower, where it is sprayed from the top to the bottom. The rich amine liquid absorbs the steam heat generated by the bottom reboiler, heats up, desorbs carbon dioxide gas, forms lean amine liquid, and flows to the bottom of the desorption tower.

[0027] S3, the lean amine liquid at the bottom of the desorption tower is first cooled to 60-70°C through the lean-rich liquid heat exchanger, and then cooled to 30-45°C through the lean liquid cooler. After that, the lean amine liquid is transported to the top of the absorption tower and sprayed from the top of the absorption tower to the bottom of the absorption tower; at the same time, the desorbed carbon dioxide gas is first cooled and dehydrated through the regeneration gas cooler, and then pressurized to 4-6 bar by the compressor and transported to the bottom of the carbonization tank; then, based on the principle of enhanced rock weathering, under acidic conditions, the desorbed carbon dioxide gas is absorbed and reacted with the limestone slurry to generate soluble calcium bicarbonate. The reaction equation is: ; Part of the unreacted carbon dioxide gas is transported to the compressor from the gas outlet at the top of the carbonization tank, and then transported to the bottom of the carbonization tank again after compression.

[0028] S4. Start the slag discharge pump and transport the generated calcium bicarbonate and the limestone slurry at the bottom of the carbonization tank to the filter for filtration at a flow rate of 5-100L / h to form clarified liquid and limestone slurry. At the same time, transport limestone powder and seawater into the limestone slurry pool to prepare limestone slurry, and start the limestone slurry pump to transport the limestone slurry to the top of the carbonization tank at a flow rate of 5-100L / h.

[0029] S5. The clarified liquid formed in the filter is transported to the mixer and mixed with seawater in a ratio of 1: (10-1000) to form a mixed liquid with a pH value of not less than 6, and the mixed liquid is discharged into the deep sea discharge area through the discharge port to achieve the purpose of carbon sequestration; at the same time, the limestone slurry residue in the filter is transported to the limestone slurry pool for the preparation of limestone slurry.

[0030] The carbon capture and storage method adopts the principle of accelerated rock weathering to fix carbon and seal it. Compared with the traditional carbon fixation method of compressing and liquefying carbon dioxide for transportation and sealing it in underground saline aquifers, the carbon capture and storage method does not require high-pressure, low-temperature, high-energy-consuming equipment, nor does it require low-temperature storage and transportation; it not only saves the cost consumed in the low-temperature storage, transportation and sealing process, but also avoids the occurrence of carbon dioxide escape during transportation; at the same time, it greatly shortens the carbon fixation process and reduces the energy consumption of carbon fixation. In addition, since calcium bicarbonate exists in the form of bicarbonate ions and calcium ions in seawater, and can exist stably under deep sea and low temperature conditions, the carbon capture and storage method can better achieve the purpose of carbon fixation and sealing.

When the waste gas needs to be decarbonized, the bypass valve is opened, and the waste gas is transported to the cooling tower through the flue gas conveying pipeline for seawater spraying. After cooling to 40-60°C, the waste gas flows into the absorption tower from the bottom of the absorption tower, contacts with the lean amine liquid sprayed in the absorption tower, and is absorbed by the lean amine liquid to form rich amine liquid and relatively pure gas. The relatively pure gas flows out from the gas outlet; S2, the formed rich amine liquid is heated to 95-110°C through the lean-rich liquid heat exchanger and then transported to the top of the desorption tower, sprayed from the top of the desorption tower to the bottom, and then heated and desorbed carbon dioxide gas after absorbing the steam heat generated by the reboiler to form lean amine liquid; S3, the formed lean amine liquid is cooled twice by the lean-rich liquid heat exchanger and the lean liquid cooler, and then transported to the top of the absorption tower. At the same time, the desorbed carbon dioxide gas is first cooled by the regeneration gas cooler, and then pressurized to 4-6 bar by the compressor and transported to the bottom of the carbonization tank. After that, based on the principle of enhanced rock weathering, under acidic conditions, the desorbed carbon dioxide gas reacts with the limestone slurry to generate soluble calcium bicarbonate. Part of the unreacted carbon dioxide gas is transported to the compressor from the gas outlet at the top of the carbonization tank, and is transported to the bottom of the carbonization tank again after compression; S4, start the slag pump, the calcium bicarbonate generated is transported to the filter together with the limestone slurry at the bottom of the carbonating tank for filtration, forming clarified liquid and limestone slag, and at the same time, limestone powder and seawater are transported in the limestone slurry pool to prepare limestone slurry, and the limestone slurry pump is started to transport limestone slurry to the top of the carbonating tank; S5. The clarified liquid formed in the filter is transported to the mixer, mixed with seawater in proportion to form a mixed liquid with a pH value of not less than 6, and the mixed liquid is discharged to the deep sea discharge area through the discharge port. At the same time, the limestone slurry residue in the filter is transported to the limestone slurry pool for preparing limestone slurry.

8. The carbon capture and storage method according to claim 7, characterized in that: In S2, the formed lean amine liquid is cooled twice, including cooling it to 60-70° C. through a lean-rich liquid heat exchanger and cooling it to 30-45° C. through a lean liquid cooler.

9. The carbon capture and storage method according to claim 7, characterized in that: In the S5, the ratio of clarified liquid to seawater is 1:(10-1000).
