Spain/Norway: A team from Cartagen Polytechnic and Ostfold University College has demonstrated that Cementos La Cruz could reduce the cost of its concrete production by Euro1.45/m3, or Euro29,000/month by curing concrete with captured CO2. EuropaPress has reported that the use of CO2 would reduce the amount of cement required by 7 – 8%. This in turn would remove an estimated 4.6% of CO2 from the concrete’s production.
