Concrete is the most utilized material worldwide, with a considerable carbon footprint from traditional cement production. Grant Quasha, CEO of Eco Material Technology, introduces a low-carbon alternative by reengineering pozzolanic cement with processed fly ash. This innovation can reduce the embodied carbon footprint of concrete by 95%. Recent collaborations, such as the agreement with Georgia Power, aim to recover 600,000 tons of fly ash yearly from industrial waste sites, contributing to pollution cleanup and sustainable construction practices.
Eco Material Technologies has reengineered the Roman method of making pozzolanic cement by utilizing fly ash, providing a sustainable solution to conventional cement production.
The agreement with Georgia Power allows Eco Materials to harvest 600,000 tons of fly ash annually, significantly reducing pollution while creating low-carbon concrete.
