Taisei Corporation: Fixing a large amount of CO2 with concrete:
-“T-e Concrete / Carbon-Recycle”-
Taisei Corporation:
“T-e Concrete / Carbon-Recycle”, which fixes a large amount of CO2, was applied to the pavement.
A stone-like building material pavement block “T-razzo” made of environment-friendly concrete is also used.
Pavement block “T-razzo”:
As a result of paving 5.3m3 cubic meters with “T-razzo”,
Compared to conventional concrete pavement, we were able to reduce CO2 emissions by a total of 1.5 tons.
What is T-eConcrete / Carbon-Recycle:
A type of “T-e Concrete” series that started to be applied in 2014.
The raw material is CO2 recovered from factory exhaust gas.
Calcium carbonate powder and blast furnace slag, which is an industrial by-product, are used as materials.
Significant CO2 reduction with T-eConcrete:
No special equipment is required to manufacture the T-e Concrete.
Even in construction that uses only a small amount of concrete, CO2 can be significantly reduced.
Can fix 70-170 kg of CO2 per 1 m3,
The CO2 emission balance in concrete manufacturing
It becomes carbon negative.
Taisei Corporation:
We would like to spread concrete pavement using calcium carbonate and contribute to carbon negative.
