Liquified CO2 addition in concrete mixer for curing

Concrete curing using carbon is an emerging concept to minimize industrial GHG emissions while also minimizing water consumption in cement industries. While CO2 can be added in any stage during concrete making, addition of liquified CO2 directly from industries during wet concrete mixing enhances long term durability of concrete and early strength compared to other techniques.
