Study sheds light on CO₂ absorption mechanism of cement-based materials

Study sheds light on CO₂ absorption mechanism of cement-based materials

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are currently one of the leading causes of global warming. Cement-based materials have shown promising applications in capturing and solidifying CO2 as minerals through a process called carbonation, offering a potential solution to mitigate the challenges associated with climate change. Consequently, numerous studies have been conducted on the carbonation of cement-based…
