The resulting slurry is then poured into a mold and left undisturbed for several days or weeks, allowing a water-cement reaction to slowly harden the mix into concrete. This process doesn't ...

Adding sodium bicarbonate—baking soda—in powder form to concrete production could reduce the carbon footprint of the ubiquitous building material by 15%, without compromising mechanical ...

A concrete slurry. Concrete slurry is just a very thin, soupy mix of Portland cement (or the concrete mix you’re using for the repair) and water.

The cement, water, and aggregate are blended into a thick slurry (or delivered that way in a cement mixer truck), poured into a mold, and left untouched for days or weeks while water and cement ...

Crews are making gradual progress on concrete construction in some areas of Security-Widefield in advance of repaving later ...

The concrete slurry, a mixture from a nearby road construction project made up of water and concrete shavings, could have reached more than 4 miles of Blue Lick Creek, ...

M ore than perhaps any other material, cement is the glue that holds the globalized world together—especially our cities. But producing it requires huge amounts of fossil fuels, and the industry ...

Cementing is performed when the cement slurry is deployed into the well via pumps, displacing the drilling fluids still located within the well, and replacing them with cement.

A new material tackles the carbon problem of concrete production and usage by employing a pretty unusual workforce: cyanobacteria. The bio-cement these micro-organisms help to produce harnesses a ...
