Carbon Dioxide Sequestration in Cementitious Construction Materials provides an updated, state-of-the-art review on the development of cementitious construction materials based on carbon dioxide storage, which will have a major eco-efficient and economic benefit for the construction industry. Key chapters include methods for the assessment of carbon dioxide absorbed by cementitious materials, air and water-based carbon dioxide storage, carbon dioxide storage modeling, carbonation mechanisms, carbon dioxide storage on recycled aggregates, calcium, sodium and magnesium- based binders, properties and the durability of carbon dioxide based concrete.

Promotes the importance of CO2 storage in carbonation of these materials, especially reincorporation of CO2 during fabrication Discusses a wide range of cementitious materials with CO2 storage capabilities Features redesign of cementation mechanisms to utilize CO2 during fabrication

Carbon Dioxide Sequestration in Cementitious Construction Materials, Second Edition,offers an updated and comprehensive overview of carbon dioxide storage-based cementitiousconstruction materials, presenting a promising avenue for substantial eco-efficiency andeconomic advantages within the construction sector. The first part examines differentmethods and mechanisms for carbon dioxide sequestration in cementitious materials,including in steel slag, in magnesium-based binders and in autoclaved cement mixtures.Part two explores carbon capture in industrial waste and recycled materials, considering cost,energy, and aqueous carbonation kinetics. The final part is entirely new and investigatesbiological approaches to carbon dioxide sequestration in construction materials, involvingbacteria, bamboo biochar, wood bio-concretes, and bio-inspired materials
