Carbon Dioxide Sequestration in Cementitious Construction Materials 2nd Edition

Carbon Dioxide Sequestration in Cementitious Construction Materials, 2nd Edition by F. Pacheco‑Torgal, Caijun Shi, and Angel Palomo is an authoritative, up‑to‑date guide for professionals and researchers working to decarbonize the construction sector. This revised edition synthesizes cutting‑edge science and practical strategies for embedding CO2 capture into concrete and other cementitious materials, offering solutions that are immediately relevant across Europe, North America, Asia and emerging markets.

Start with a clear overview of mechanisms, materials, and measurement techniques, then move into applied chapters that explore industrial processes, lifecycle assessment, and regulatory drivers. The book balances rigorous research with real‑world case studies on green concrete, carbonation curing, mineral sequestration and low‑carbon binders—making it essential for civil engineers, materials scientists, environmental consultants, policymakers and sustainability officers.

Readers will gain actionable insight into reducing embodied carbon in buildings and infrastructure, optimizing performance without sacrificing durability, and meeting evolving emissions standards worldwide. Practical tables, methodological guidance and comparative analyses help translate complex concepts into project‑level decisions—critical for contractors, specifiers and R&D teams.

If you’re seeking a comprehensive reference that bridges laboratory advances and field deployment, this edition equips you to lead decarbonization efforts in construction projects and policy frameworks. Purchase this indispensable resource to stay at the forefront of sustainable construction practices, improve carbon accounting, and implement scalable sequestration strategies that matter in today’s global climate agenda.
