Addition of electricity drastically lowers carbon footprint of cement production

Cement has been a vital building block (pun intended) in constructing civilization. However, its manufacturing process has also made it a wrecking ball on the environment, with a carbon footprint that rivals that of the aviation industry. Scientists from the University of British Columbia have devised a method that dramatically cuts cement’s carbon footprint using electricity.Continue ReadingCategory: Materials, EngineeringTags: Building and Construction, University of British Columbia, Cement,...
