Seminar on CO2 Reduction Technologies

On July 4, 2025, from 13:30 to 15:30, the Japan Project Institute (JPI) will host an insightful seminar focusing on the latest advancements in CO2 reduction technologies utilizing cement and inorganic salts. The event will feature Mr. Takaki Muroi, representative of ICLabo, who will share valuable insights regarding international and domestic developments in the field.

Background

Cement production is a significant contributor to CO2 emissions, ranking just after steel production. This necessitates the development of innovative cement products that can significantly reduce CO2 emissions. Not only are new types of cement being conceived, but there is also a growing trend towards using CO2 to produce concrete and other materials, which are crucial for sustainable construction practices. The seminar will cover the various technologies employed both domestically and internationally to mitigate CO2 emissions from cement and its derivatives.

Topics Covered

The seminar will delve into a broad range of topics, including:
1. CO2 Emissions from Cement Production
Understanding the extent of CO2 emissions produced by cement manufacturing.
2. CO2 Reduction Cement
(1) Portland Cement
(2) Blast Furnace Cement
(3) Fly Ash Utilization Cement
(4) Solidia Cement
(5) LC3 Cement
Each type will be examined to see how they contribute to reducing CO2 emissions.
3. CO2 Utilization in Concrete
(1) SUICOM
(2) Carbon Cure
(3) Carbicrete
(4) Calcium Carbonate Concrete
(5) Artificial Limestone Concrete
4. CO2 Utilization in Aggregate Production
