Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)

We will form a scientific basis for a new product: cement with biochar. The new cement will exhibit radically reduced carbon footprint and will still offer desired performance at a competitive price. Sequestering biochar from a large stock of available biomass will aid the Swiss CO2 removal efforts.
