A concrete solution to storing carbon


Professor Tan Ming Jen and a team of researchers at SC3DP, in collaboration with ARAMCO (Saudi Arabia) developed a new carbon-capture material for building and construction. The methods involve injecting captured CO2 and steam into concrete during 3D printing, storing the CO2 directly within the structure while enhancing its mechanical strength. This approach improves the durability of 3D-printed concrete. The project was recently presented at CNAClick here to watch the CNA interview:
