CURA and Grand Forks Concrete Partner to Innovate Low-Carbon Cement Production
News Summary
CURA Climate Inc., a Canadian climate-tech company, has partnered with Grand Forks Concrete Ltd. to develop a pilot-scale demonstration plant and a first-of-its-kind commercial facility aimed at converting agricultural spent lime into low-carbon cement and agricultural co-products. This partnership aims to create a commercial platform capable of producing low-carbon cement and agricultural products from legacy industrial materials. CURA’s innovative electrochemical process selectively extracts high-value components from spent lime, offering an economically viable solution to manage CO2 emissions from cement manufacturing. The collaboration emphasizes the development of a circular economy by turning waste materials into high-value products, ensuring a resilient industrial system.
