The new eco-technology against icing of trails

As a rule, in many snowy parts of the world use de-icing salt crystals. However, scientists have found another method to get rid of ice – a new environmental technology, which is the most safe for the human body and the environment.

It is worth noting that researchers have long been working on finding alternative prevent icing on the roads. Unique technology includes the introduction of the electric charge of low voltage in the roadbed. In the near future this method can be used on American roads.



Leading scientist of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Chris Tuan tries to solve the problem of icing. So Chris and his team invented an innovative concrete which can be heated to the required temperature due to steel shavings and carbon. In this regard, this material can easily cope with the melting of ice and snow. The concrete is absolutely safe for the environment and people.





While this technology will not be integrated into the road, as it was not yet tested. However, this project interested experts from the Federal aviation administration of the United States, who want to create a pilot program. If the new material passes the test, the concrete can cover all airports in the country. Thus, the Ecotechnology will provide an opportunity to solve one of the important problems of the road infrastructure of Northern regions. At the moment the representatives of the institutions assessed work and make a contract to disclose the cost of the project. published
