The National Council for Cement and Building Materials has collaborated with TraceXero Technologies, a start-up focused on industrial decarbonisation and carbon capture solutions, to support the development of Carbon Capture Technologies for the cement sector. The collaboration also aims for the utilisation technologies for the cement and construction materials sector.
The Ministry of Commerce and Industry informed that TraceXero has been developing a technology that captures Carbon dioxide using a proprietary solvent process and converts the captured Carbon dioxide into graphitic carbon and eventually graphene, turning emissions into a potentially valuable material resource rather than a waste stream. It added that the council has been working in the areas of research, technology development, and industrial services for the cement and construction materials sector in the country.
