We had to try.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As reported in the journal Nature, the study found that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41586-024-07338-8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">used cement acts as an effective substitute for lime flux<\/a>, commonly used in steel recycling to remove impurities.<\/p>\n<p>By substituting used cement for lime flux in the electrically-powered arc furnaces, the the high temperatures reactivate the cement, effectively recycling it to be used anew. This process also reduces the slag traditionally produced by using lime flux in the process.<\/p>\n<p>Project partner the Materials Processing Institute carried out tests showing that this recycling process can be produced at scale. If the furnaces involved are powered with renewable energy, this renders the entire process zero-emissions.<\/p>\n<p>The cement made through this recycling process contains higher levels of iron oxide than conventional cement, but the researchers say this has little effect on performance.<\/p>\n<h3>The team have filed a patent on the process<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cProducing zero emissions cement is an absolute miracle, but we\u2019ve also got to reduce the amount of cement and concrete we use,\u201d said Allwood. \u201cConcrete is cheap, strong and can be made almost anywhere, but we just use far too much of it. We could dramatically reduce the amount of concrete we use without any reduction in safety, but there needs to be political will to make that happen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Cambridge Electric Cement process has been scaling rapidly, with researchers saying they could be producing one billion tonnes per year by 2050, which represents roughly a quarter of current annual cement production.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs well as being a breakthrough for the construction industry, we hope that Cambridge Electric Cement will also be a flag to help the government recognise that the opportunities for innovation on our journey to zero emissions extend far beyond the energy sector,\u201d Allwood continues.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers have filed a patent on the process to support its commercialisation. The research was supported in part by Innovate UK and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI).<\/p>\n<div
