The production of concrete is a significant source of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions that contribute to climate change. Many technical solutions exist for reducing emissions along the concrete supply chain. However, wide scale adoption of these technologies is hindered by a market failure 鈥 ...
Reduce concrete CO2 emissions by up to 40% with Connovate's innovative solution. Explore how Connovate CemCut replaces cement in concrete to support climate targets.
The BMW Group is the first automotive manufacturer to set itself concrete targets for reducing CO2 emissions in its supply chain by 2030. In addition to the use of green power for the energy-intensive production of fifth-generation battery cells, further meas...
Second, if it were merely about signaling, with the government failing to take substantive action thereafter, we would expect to observe a more “abrupt” effect that potentially fades as citizens and businesses come to realize that the government’s intentions are not followed by concrete measures...
coal combustion ash, and paper waste. We evaluate the CO2reduction potential to reveal promising materials and industries. We found that 4.2 Mt CO2can be directly sequestered annually. Moreover, the use of alternative materials in the cement and concrete industries can indirectly facilitate CO2sequest...
The purpose is to support the adoption of emission-free transport and loading equipment solutions in the industry. The cement and concrete industries are responsible for around 8 per cent of the planet’s carbon emissions. Finding ways to reduce its climate impact is vit...
burning fossil fuels and even respiration of plants and living things. As the consequences of climate change become clearer, both governments and private sector companies are setting targets for carbon emission reductions, since these are regarded as the main greenhouse gases, and their high concentrat...
We combined our estimates of end-of-life cement generation with typical percentages of cement end uses (15% in mortar and 80% in concrete10) and the means of ranges of clinker (0.21 in mortar; 0.12 in concrete), cement (0.25 in mortar; 0.18 in concrete), and binder (0.37 in mortar;...
Through soft diplomacy, the Pavilion Indonesia displays the policies and concrete results of previous work, as well as paving the way for future climate ambitions together with relevant parties. "Multilateral, collective and integrated action is needed as the only way to overcome a real global threa...
However, solar radiation directly heats the water and adjacent concrete walls, of the trapezoidal shape channels leading to increased evaporation through a "hot zone" effect over the channel (Fig. 1) due to mirror effect. 1Graduate Academic Program on Energy, The Federal University of ABC –...
