«C’est l’invention du siècle»: à Saint-Quentin, il met au point un procédé révolutionnaire qui crée une pierre en quelques heures

Créer une pierre en quelques heures alors que la nature le fait en 100 000 ans. C’est ce que promet François Waendendries qui a mis au point un procédé permettant de recréer n’importe quel minéral. Les débouchés sont potentiellement considérables. Une usine va bientôt ouvrir…

carbonaide turns CO2 into carbon-negative concrete blocks that can trap emissions

Carbonaide, a spin-out company from VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, takes concrete action to reduce carbon footprint by transforming CO2 itself into carbon-negative concrete blocks that eventually become a carbon sink, or an object that is able to absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.…

Management and valorisation of delithiated β-spodumene and its processing stream

In many regions including Australia and South America (Lithium Triangle), lithium mining needs to thrive without compromising natural ecosystems. In particular, extracting lithium from pegmatites produces significant amounts of Delithiated β-spodumene (DβS) or equivalent materials. (Lire plus...)

CO2 Concrete – Carbon Use Technology For Building Our Future

CO2Concrete is turning carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions into construction materials and products without a need for carbon capture. Our patent-pending technology upcycles CO2 with unparalleled efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and throughput into precast CO2Concrete™ products. This breakthrough technology replaces the more than century-old paradigm of energy-intensive and CO2-intensive manufacturing of ordinary portland cement (OPC)-based concrete, and concrete products. By converting CO2 emissions from power plants, cement plants, or petrochemical production into CO2Concrete™, we will enable base industries to transform and achieve their carbon emission reduction goals.
