Inspired by the growing need for carbon mitigation strategies, this work investigates mechanochemical activation of argon oxygen decarburization (AOD) slag for CO2 sequestration. It explores three process modes: concurrent, sequential, and staged planetary ball milling and carbonation. Results showed carbonation uptake reached 70 % of the theoretical maximum with ball milling (0.39 g CO2/g AOD slag) versus 0.17 g CO2/g AOD slag without ball milling. The concurrent process resulted in the fastest rate and uptake. Particle agglomeration was confirmed via particle size analysis and electron microscopy, and non-reactive mineral phases were identified through quantitative X-ray diffraction, explaining incomplete carbonation conversion.
