The use of low-carbon building materials is identified as a key strategy in reducing embodied carbon in building industry2, with production falling into two primary approaches. The first approach focuses on using alternative energy sources or innovative technologies to reduce carbon emissions during the...
while emissions reduction opportunities are observed across the different processes and activities, decarbonizing the CCI is largely a function of decarbonizing cement. That is, the less conventional clinker used in cement products, the smaller the overall embodied emissions of cement and concrete prod...

Bonhomie Cement Inc. builds greener cities by reducing the embodied carbon emissions of yoursidewalks, bike lanes, roads, and seawalls by >61%. It is a more durable product that lasts longer - reducing costs, materials, and further emissions over time. ...
By incorporating silica, the required amount of Portland cement is reduced by 40%, resulting in the production of carbon-negative concrete. This groundbreaking technology won the 2022 Obel Award for its focus on embodied emissions. The Obel Award is an international award that promotes architecture ...
Besides, the workability, water absorption, dry density, and embodied carbon were decreased as the quantity of WSA increased with the mass of PC, and all of these properties are increased with the incorporation of used engine oil in concrete after 28 days, respectively....
