Low-Carbon Cement & Concrete Chemistries

Emerging binders and supplementary cementitious materials (e.g., calcined clays, alkali-activated geopolymers) and carbon mineralization pathways can significantly cut cement-related emissions. Adoption depends on code acceptance, performance validation, and supply chain scaling for consistent quality.
