Concrete, the most widely used material in the world, has a significant environmental impact due to its carbon dioxide emissions. Grant Quasha, CEO of Eco Material Technology, discusses their innovative approach to producing low-carbon cement and concrete materials. By reengineering the Roman method of making pozzolanic cement using processed fly ash, the company has developed a material called PozzoSlag®, which can drastically reduce the carbon footprint of concrete. This technology not only lowers emissions but also offers the opportunity to clean up industrial waste while building sustainable infrastructure.
