Low carbon solutions
Whether driven by in-company missions, governmental regulation, or contract stipulations, the concrete industry needs to make enormous strides in creating more products from recycled materials with lower CO2 footprints.
Many companies reconfigured their cement-making processes to meet consumer demand and comply with environmental stipulations. Cement is a key ingredient in concrete and one of the world’s top carbon producers.
That has meant increased involvement from the science community, which globally has found lower-carbon solutions for cement mixtures, including researchers at Empa, the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology. https://bityl.co/OjJ6
