Recyclable cement for low carbon concrete development

Ordinary Portland cement, which is commonly used in concrete, is associated with significant carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions during production. However, research suggests that Reactive Magnesium Oxide (MgO) cement (RMC) may offer a more environmentally friendly alternative due to its lower environmen...
