This study examined hydrogen production, CO2 storage and abiotic hydrocarbon generation duringgas-water-rock interactions by conducting hydrothermal experiments. The first part of this manuscriptpresents the simultaneous CO2 sequestration and hydrogen production by reacting New Caledonianmine tailings with CO2 saturated water at 473 K <T< 573 K and 15 MPa <PCO2< 30 MPa. The resultsshowed that the best conditions for both these reactions were 523 K <T<540 K at 30 MPa, capturing320.5 g of CO2 in the form of iron-rich magnesite ((Mg,Fe)CO3), and producing 0.57 g of H2 per 1 kgof mine tailings. In addition, considering the annual mine tailings production and the annual CO2emission in New Caledonia, the proposed method could potentially capture ...
