This new concrete is stronger and pulls CO2 from the air

Researchers have created a concrete mixture that is both stronger and capable of absorbing carbon dioxide.

Researchers have created a concrete mixture that is both stronger and capable of absorbing carbon dioxide. The best formula, combining zeolite with bamboo biochar, boosted compressive strength by 7. 48% and tensile strength by 15% compared with conventional concrete. It also captured about 1. 2 grams of CO₂ per day in laboratory testing.
