The carbon fiber is woven into a mesh, or as a composite material that mimics existing rebar structures. These two types of reinforcement can be combined in a composite to produce a concrete ...

Holding half its weight in carbon dioxide, the material could replace sand in concrete and other construction materials while trapping greenhouse gas. Using seawater, electricity and carbon ...

Advanced carbon fiber materials could be used in applications from wind turbine blades to biomedical implants following the ...

Holcim offers sustainable building solutions such as ECOPact, a broad range of low-carbon concrete that can reduce CO₂ emissions by at least 30% compared to the market reference, without ...

The clusters hold over half their weight in CO2 to become a carbon sink. Material could replace sand in concrete and be used in other construction materials while trapping CO2. Using seawater ...

Now, Northwestern’s new strategy addresses this challenge by locking away CO 2 permanently and turning it into valuable materials, which can be used to manufacture concrete, cement, plaster and paint.
