Concrete structures in Japan capture and store about 14% of the CO2 emissions released during cement production, according to a new study by Japanese researchers. Their findings provide crucial ...

Nearly 40% of failure of concrete structures occurs due to corrosion of embedded steel reinforcement. For this reason, corrosion control of steel reinforcement is essential to prevent damage and ...

A silent but devastating threat is compromising the durability of wastewater infrastructure: microbially induced concrete corrosion (MICC). This complex process, driven by sulfur-oxidizing ...

Concrete naturally absorbs CO 2 throughout its lifetime through a process called carbonation, also known as CO 2 uptake. While this process can contribute to the corrosion of reinforcing steel ...
