Put simply, the term ‘cleantech’ describes a product that aims to reduce or mitigate negative environmental impact. Accounting for eight per cent of the world’s carbon emissions, the current process for making cement is far from eco-friendly. At the same time, carbon dioxide is released and captured, alongside oxygen and hydrogen.
