Zero Emission Cement

Cambridge researchers developed a zero-emission cement method, recycling old concrete in steel furnaces. If powered by renewables, this could cut 7.5% of global emissions and make concrete fully sustainable.

Cambridge researchers have created a zero-emission cement production method, potentially cutting 7.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. The process recycles old concrete and uses it in steel furnaces, which, if powered by renewable energy, could make concrete fully sustainable. They are working with the Materials Processing Institute to scale this up, promising significant environmental benefits.
