The lighthouse project Concrete Chemicals will mark the very first milestone towards decarbonizing the cement industry. An international consortium of industrial and academic project partners - including the renewable energy company ENERTRAG, global building materials producer CEMEX and Sasol ecoFT, a global leader in the development and application of the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) technology - is paving the way to achieve a clean cement production process through converting emitted CO2 into renewable chemical products and clean, synthetic fuels.
