Scientists have created "green" cement Bashny.Net

This type of cement is one of several that scientists have developed over the last 10 years are to become a full-fledged alternative to conventional cement.



The main advantage of the new material — the lesser the amount of fossil fuel that is used in the production (melting process).



This entails reducing emissions of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is estimated to developers by as much as 80% while reducing overall production costs up to 60 percent. Moreover, this cement has higher strength and durability when compared with ordinary cement, which is used today in construction. Considering the continuing growth of global industrialization and urbanization, the use of such environmentally friendly cement – the chance to significantly reduce carbon footprint in the construction industry.
