CO2 from Wisconsin ethanol plant injected into greener concrete production

In Illinois, Ozinga recently installed the CarbonCure technology at its downtown Chicago ready mix concrete plant. The CarbonCure technology recycles carbon dioxide gas generated by an ethanol plant in neighboring Wisconsin and injects it into Ozinga’s concrete in order to improve the concrete’s compressive strength and significantly reduce its carbon footprint.

CarbonCure is concrete’s gateway to the green building community. Its technology chemically repurposes waste carbon dioxide during the concrete manufacturing process. Through collaboration with leading designers, the company and its partners are supplying a scalable solution to address the growing demand for green building materials.
