This session will familiarize the mechanisms governing concrete curing via carbonation, and show how this method presents a more sustainable alternative to incumbent curing practices. It will demonstrate carbonation-curing’s associated environmental, manufacturing, and product-performance benefits.
Learning Objectives:
- Review the manufacturing process of concrete block
- Review the Carboclave process
- Understand the purpose of sequestering carbon dioxide in concrete products
- Understand the benefits of sequestering carbon dioxide in concrete products
