The field of sustainable construction materials is currently seeking transformative solutions to reduce the environmental impact associated with concrete ...

Carbon capture is essential to reduce the impact of human carbon dioxide emissions on our climate. Researchers have developed a method to confirm whether carbon in concrete originates from the raw ...

After a decade in the works, researchers at University of California, Los Angeles, have successfully devised a way to produce cement with 98% less CO2 emissions than traditional methods. The UCLA team ...

In 2014, hundreds of Angelenos gathered downtown to watch more than 2,000 trucks pour concrete into a vast hole. During that event, Los Angeles set a world record: 80 million pounds of concrete were ...

Producing cement is a major source of carbon emissions — 8% of the global total. A company in Massachusetts has altered the recipe, finding a way to produce carbon-zero cement instead. Roughly 8% of ...

This story was originally published by Canary Media and is part of its special series “The Tough Stuff: Decarbonizing steel, cement and chemicals.” Holcim Group, the largest cement manufacturer ...

Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials, but its production is a significant source of carbon emissions due to the energy-intensive process of cement manufacturing. As the ...

Scientists at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed a 3D concrete printing method that captures carbon, demonstrating a new pathway to reduce the environmental ...

The production of the cement used in concrete is a major contributor to worldwide CO2 emissions and since we're reliant on the stuff for our infrastructure, this is a serious problem. However, Nendo ...

Carbon emissions from burning fossil fuels contains very little carbon-14 (14 C) because it has decayed so much over time. This makes carbon-14 very useful for tracing carbon emissions from natural ...

Scientists have developed a 3D concrete printing method that captures carbon, demonstrating a new pathway to reduce the environmental impact of the construction industry. Scientists at Nanyang ...
