Wollastonite is the lime of the future. In the near future, lime applications will become unprofitable due to the carbon dioxide released from calcium carbonate. Wollastonite is a calcium silicate which quickly releases calcium, magnesium, and silicon in the soil and contains no carbon dioxide. Pound for pound, wollastonite has 44% more minerals, mainly silicon,

Several alternatives for producing calcium carbonate from wollastonite have been suggested and studied to various extents. The simplest process is the direct dry or aqueous carbonation of wollastonite, suggested by Kojima et al. [32]. This process was found to be too slow for industrial applications under normal conditions.

Carbon-neutral Calcium: When calcium carbonate (lime) reacts in the soil, it releases carbon dioxide. Wollastonite breaks down into calcium and silicon, and is, therefore, carbon neutral. Like lime, the calcium helps balance soil pH and supplies calcium for high-quality plant growth. Wollastonite can capture up to %62 CO2 by weight, that is 620 ...
