To realize the extent of calcium chloride waste disposal problems caused by using the Solvay process, we need only examine the net reaction, which indicates that for each molecule of sodium carbonate manufactured, one molecule of waste calcium chloride is formed. The net chemical reaction for the Solvay process is

The material CaCl2·6H2O is inexpensive and abundant. It is obtained by separation from brine, mined by pumping from subterranean deposits. It was known to chemists of an earlier century as “oleum calcis”. CaCl2 is also produced as a by-product of several industrial chemical processes, for example, the Solvay process for producing sodium carbonate.

CO2 has a particular affinity for interacting with various nitrogen nucleophiles, such as ammonia or amines. This fact is of great synthetic relevance since it is a key step towards the carbonylation of the said nucleophile and the synthesis of N-carbonyl compounds. The fixation of CO2 by amines can produce carbamic acids, carriers of the carbamate group (RR’NCO2). Nowadays, the interest in the reaction between amines and CO2 continues, since in addition to its traditional uses, such as in the Solvay process or in the synthesis of urea from ammonia and CO2, new applications with synthetic relevance have emerged, such as the synthesis of esters from carbamates, isocyanates, and ureas (Quaranta and Aresta 2010).

In the same way, as for reject brine, the NaCl contained in saltern bittern can be directly used for CCS through the addition of ammonia (the Solvay process) to form sodium bicarbonate precipitate, which can be removed by filtration (Eq. 3) [108]. However, this process has some drawbacks, for example (i) ammonia is volatile at the temperature used for the conventional CCS process; and (ii) the addition of lime for the regeneration of ammonia leads to more CO2 production (Eqs. 4–6) [28,109]. The mechanisms underlying this process can be expressed as follows:
Life-cycle assessment-based comparison of different lignocellulosic ethanol production routes

The inventory for the biorefinery stage is based on the following assumptions: All types of low-lignin biomass give similar yield when they undergo the same treatments. Data related to process performance are taken from different sources for different feedstocks. Thus, operating conditions, scale of operation and so on may be different. However, these factors are ignored.The pre-treatment and hydrolysis of the polysaccharides result in the production of only glucose and xylose, and the production of other hexose or pentose monosaccharides is ignored. Oligomer formation has also been ignored.Recovery of 100% is assumed after the pre-processing of the biomass.The initial temperature of the biomass is assumed to be 30 °C.The operating conditions for hydrolysis and fermentation do not change based on the pre-treatment selection.Fermentation is assumed to take place at relatively low temperatures. Therefore, energy for fermentation has been neglected.The CO2 emitted during the fermentation stage is ignored for calculation of global warming potential since it is considered to be of biogenic origin.LSHS (low-sulfur heavy stock) has been used as fuel in boilers for steam generation.A contact process is assumed for sulfuric acid production, Solvay process for soda production and steam reforming for ammonia production.
