One of the latest advancements in this realm is the integration of carbon dioxide (CO 2) into concrete through direct air carbon capture (DACC) technology. The process of integrating CO 2 into ...

Reinforced concrete is the miracle material which made possible so many of the twentieth century’s most iconic structures, but here in this century its environmental footprint makes it something ...

By integrating carbonated aggregates and biochar—a substance derived from heating biomass waste—concrete could absorb significant amounts of carbon dioxide. Current estimates suggest that if ...

Is it really possible to store large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) in building materials like concrete and plastic? If so, ...

With an interest in providing the concrete construction industry an alternative for portland cement almost entirely for everyday concrete applications, Terra CO2 has launched trails for OPUS ZERO ...

Researchers in Japan found a way to make concrete that effectively emits no carbon dioxide (CO2) during the production process. The team of scientists, primarily from the University of Tokyo and ...

Concrete structures in Japan capture and store about 14% of the CO2 emissions released during cement production, according to a new study. Their findings provide crucial insights for offsetting CO2 ...

Can excess soil from construction be used as a sustainable alternative to traditional building materials like concrete and other CO2-heavy materials?

Some initiatives aim to make concrete without cement. Others attempt to inject CO2 back into the concrete, capturing and storing it. Others aim to improve concrete's performance as a carbon sink ...

The newly developed 3D concrete printing process involves injecting steam and CO2, captured as the by-products of industrial processes, into the mixing concrete, which then directly incorporates and ...
