Cement recycling method could help solve one of the world’s biggest climate challenges

Researchers have developed a method to produce very low emission concrete at scale — an innovation that could be transformative in the transition to net zero. The method, which the researchers say is ‘an absolute miracle’, uses the electrically-powered arc furnaces used for steel recycling to simultaneously recycle cement, the carbon-hungry component of concrete.
