Whole Life Cycle Carbon Uptake Tool – MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub
Whole Life Cycle Carbon Uptake Tool. Carbonation is a natural process of carbon uptake in concrete that has been estimated to offset up to 43% of calcination emissions that occur during cement production. But to integrate carbonation into carbon accounting practices, it’s essential to estimate it at a more granular level.

Albedo and Cool Pavements – MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub
Albedo and Cool Pavements – MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub. Albedo is a measure of a surface’s reflectivity — surfaces with low albedo reflect less light than do surfaces with high albedo. This has several implications for combatting phenomena such as the urban heat island effect. “Cool pavements,” those high in albedo, reflect more

· Firstly, carbonation causes cement-based products to act as natural carbon sinks, sequestering CO 2 from the air and storing it permanently. This helps mitigate the carbon emissions associated with the production of cement, reducing their overall carbon footprint. Secondly, carbonation affects concrete properties.
