CO2 uptake potential due to concrete carbonation: A case study

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2017
The cement manufacturing process accounts for about 5% CO2 (carbon dioxide) released into the atmosphere. However, during its life cycle, concrete may capture CO2 through carbonation, in order to, partially, offset the impact of its production.
