Unlocking Cement Efficiency and Carbon Removal in Precast

This free, non-CEU webinar is sponsored by CarbonCure Technologies and available to PCI members only.

Unlocking Cement Efficiency and Carbon Removal in Precast/Prestressed Production

As specifiers, end users and purchasers focus more attention on the environmental impact of concrete production, precast/prestressed concrete producers are in a unique position to lead the way in taking new and innovative approaches to lower the carbon impact of concrete.

One such approach utilizes waste CO2 as a beneficial admixture – resulting in a more efficient use of cement that unlocks both environmental and economic benefits for producers.

Join Sean Monkman, Ph.D., P.Eng., of CarbonCure Technologies, to learn the facts about how CO2 Utilization can be used as a strategy to unlock environmental, financial, and competitive advantages in precast/prestressed concrete production.

Learning Objectives:  

  • How precast concrete compares to other building materials in terms of sustainability
  • How CO2 can be upcycled to allow more efficient use of cement and permanent carbon removal in precast/prestressed concrete production
  • The science behind how CO2 impacts fresh properties and durability
  • Financial and competitive advantages of producing sustainable precast/prestressed products

Speakers:
