Large quantities of carbon dioxide are released during the production of building materials. With a new process, they could ...

Researchers have found in a new study that Pulpotomy with Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂) and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) ...

As these and the hydroxide ions reacted with other dissolved ions of magnesium and calcium, they formed calcium carbonate and ...

The quest for carbon-neutral concrete has become a billion-dollar endeavor – but a team of scientists from Northwestern gas ...

Calcium carbonate directly acts as a carbon sink, while magnesium hydroxide sequesters carbon through further interactions with CO 2.

Cow’s milk is an excellent source of calcium to keep your bones healthy, but it’s not the only way you can meet your calcium needs. High-calcium vegetables, proteins, and dairy products offer choices ...

You know to eat calcium-rich foods for optimal bone health (whomst among us haven’t drank a glass of milk every night as a child just to grow a few inches taller?), but this vital nutrient does a lot ...

Holding half its weight in carbon dioxide, the material could replace sand in concrete and other construction materials while trapping greenhouse gas. The escalating global climate crisis has ...

Now, Northwestern's new strategy addresses this challenge by locking away CO 2 permanently and turning it into valuable materials, which can be used to manufacture concrete, cement, plaster and paint.

As Earth’s climate continues to warm, researchers around the globe are exploring ways to capture CO 2 from the air and store it deep underground. The method transforms CO2 into valuable, ...

Using seawater, electricity and carbon dioxide (CO 2), Northwestern University scientists have developed a new carbon-negative building material. As Earth's climate continues to warm, researchers ...

You know to eat calcium-rich food for optimal bone health, but this vital nutrient does a lot to keep our bodies functioning properly. “Calcium is the most abundant and essential mineral for our ...
