Taiheiyo Cement develops new carbon fixation method with University of Tokyo

Written by Global Cement Staff 22 November 2021

Japan: Taiheiyo Cement and the University of Tokyo have patented a carbon capture system based on a new carbon fixation method. The method passes CO₂-bearing gas over 40mm granules of a hardened cementitious material at 75 - 100°C. The granules then fix the CO₂ from the stream to themselves, for utilisation or storage.
