This project develops a new type of hydraulic binder using magnesium from abundant ultramafic rocks, aiming to eliminate CO2 emissions from traditional cement production. The innovative process produces CO2-free cements that can potentially sequester atmospheric CO2, contributing to a net-negative carbon footprint.
The majority of CO2 emissions associated with Portland clinker production originate from the calcination of limestone, a process necessary to extract calcium, the key element required for forming the main binding hydration phases.
Unfortunately, most of the calcium found in nature is embedded in limestone.
This project aims to explore hydraulic binders based on magnesium (instead of calcium) since this element is abundant in silico-magnesian ultramafic rocks, which are widely available.
