New Generation Green Material: Biochar Concrete
What if concrete could store instead of emit carbon? From rice husks and wood humus to coffee grounds, biochar is moving from agriculture to construction sites, turning by-products into functional grains for cement matrices. Biochar concrete is therefore considered a "new generation candidate": both reducing the carbon footprint of the life cycle and refining the microstructure to optimize performance – as long as the right dosage – is used.
