Ecocem has opened its new research and innovation center in Chilly-Mazarin, France, and marked a large milestone in its mission, cement until 2040 at decarbonizing 10 years before global goals.
The furnishings will drive the development of low -carbon cement technologies of the next generation, including alternatives to clinker by using additional cement materials (SCMS). It builds on the Ecocem technology of Ecocem technology, which is close to commercial availability near commercial availability, which offers a scalable path to the dramatic cut of cement emissions.
“With act near the commercialization, the new center will enable us to go faster and faster and faster,” said Donal O'Riin, founder and global managing director of Ecocem. “What is now needed is the widespread introduction of available cement technologies with low -carbon cement, so that the cement industry is the first to achieve a decarbonization of 1.5 ° C.”
Under the direction of Roberta Alfani and a team of 30s of engineers and technicians, the center will promote global partnerships, manage industry standards and help to deliver solutions that can reduce cement emissions by 90 percent by 2030.
The start was officially presented by Niall Burgess, ambassador for Ireland in France and Monaco. So far, Ecocem's innovations have already avoided 18 million CO2 Emissions, with more reductions.
