Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is one of the crucial technologies for reducing global temperature rise to far below 2°C, ideally 1.5°C, compared to pre-industrial levels. However, a recent study performed by Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden and the University of Bergen in Norway predicts that without rapid expansion [...]
A novel discovery in concrete manufacture by the University of Northwestern’s team of engineers provides dual benefits, absorbing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the environment while maintaining if not increasing, concrete strength. This new technique, which employs a carbonated water-based solution throughout manufacture, has the potential to greatly impact worldwide efforts to mitigate climate [...]
