Universal Continuing Decision Process For: Novacem *
| Novacem, a British startup, is developing a cement that uses an alternative to carbonates and absorbs CO2 more quickly. Novacem’s technology is based on magnesium oxide and special mineral additives. In contrast to Portland cement, its manufacturing process requires lower processing temperatures and causes minimal CO2 emissions. It also absorbs large amounts of CO2 as it hardens, making it carbon negative. See, “Novacem – carbon negative cement to transform the construction industry, October 15, 2008. |
