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. Thus no CO 2 is formed, to eliminate cement’s greenhouse gas contribution to anthropogenic climate change.
