Swedish startup Cemvision cements deal with Vattenfall for greener concrete

Quick Summary:

Swedish green cement startup Cemvision has inked a deal with energy giant Vattenfall, as industrial companies look to cut their emissions from one of the world’s most polluting materials.

Cemvision has devised a greener way to make cement.

It uses by-products from industries like steel and mining instead of fresh limestone, slashing emissions.  "We’re on track to producing cement that emits 95% less carbon than traditional methods while remaining just as strong and potentially even faster-drying,” Oscar Hållén, CEO of Cemvision, previously told TNW.
