Low carbon cement
Low Carbon Cement
BINDR™.
BINDR™ is a family of proprietary alkali-activated binders made from metallurgical slags and alkali salts. Unlike cement, it requires no kilns, no burning, and no energy-intensive processes. The result: ultra-low-carbon, high-performance binders that can be tailored for a wide range of construction applications.

‘Mivan Shuttering’ has been a godsend for the construction industry. That’s because Mivan technology enables extremely rapid construction, improves durability and earthquake resistance, and reduces wall thickness and increases carpet area in high rise buildings.
The Mivan construction technology essentially comprises a highly durable aluminium formwork fabricated in the shape and layout of the building including the walls, columns, beams, and slabs. It is extremely modular and uses the same formwork for all the floors of the building. The steel reinforcement is fixed within the formwork and concrete is poured into it to make the different members of the building.

It was never an argument - climate change is real, and it demands urgent action. As per the IPCC 2018 Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5°C, it is estimated that by 2050, if the world isn’t fully carbon neutral, then global temperatures could increase by much more than 1.5C. However, as per Piers Froster, one of the lead authors of the landmark paper, there is still hope. He stated, “If the world can substantially reduce emissions in the 2020s and get to net zero carbon emissions by 2050, temperature rise can still be limited to 1.5C”.
This begs the question - how can we overturn climate change quickly and effectively? The surest way forward is geoengineering, which is essentially a way for human beings to manage the earth’s climate in deliberate ways. An effective, low cost way of geoengineering is to devise methods of Carbon Dioxide Removal, or CDR. Activities such as afforestation and reforestation are popular methods of CDR, however, given the time scale it takes to cause real impact, it isn’t a practical method despite its obvious benefits.
It is for this reason that more and more scientific and institutional efforts are directed towards creating ways of achieving CDR in a highly effective and relatively low-cost manner.
