Accurate measurement of CO2 captured in the concrete formation at CarbonBuilt
Engineering
″We originally deployed your sensors for both bench-top and pilot scale projects. We are now constructing our first commercial project.
For context: Our ultra-low carbon concrete technology profitably reduces embodied carbon of concrete products by 70-100+% through the use of lower carbon binding ingredients and the mineralization of atmospheric carbon, storing it permanently. The technology is integrated with existing concrete plants. After the retrofit, a single concrete masonry unit production line running a single shift will remove 500-1000 tonnes of carbon while avoiding another 2500-3500 annually. The end products meet all standards and specifications, generate additional producer income from the sale of high-quality carbon credits, and can be sold at price parity to their traditional counterparts.
We have been pleased with the integrity, accuracy and robustness of Dracal products.″
