A team at George Washington University has demonstrated a new solar process that can produce lime (CaO) for cement without any emission of carbon dioxide, and at lower projected cost than the existing cement industry process. The majority (about 60%) of those CO 2 emissions result from the production of lime. The CO is produced.
