Terra CO2 Enters Permitting Stage for High-Performance Cement Extender Plant in Texas, Creating a Near-Term Solution for Increased Production and Carbon Reduction
The plant will produce Terra's OPUS SCMTM (supplementary cementitious material), a high-performance cement extender expected to displace 40-50% of Portland cement (the most common type of cement) when blended.
- The plant will produce Terra's OPUS SCMTM (supplementary cementitious material), a high-performance cement extender expected to displace 40-50% of Portland cement (the most common type of cement) when blended.
- As the construction industry faces increasing regulatory pressure to reduce its carbon footprint, Terra's OPUS SCM offers a solution that addresses environmental concerns and broader industry needs.
- Terra's solution extends the life and enhances the ROI of established cement plants while meeting the growing demand for cement.
- Terra is currently testing OPUS ZEROTM, a complete cement replacement that can reduce greenhouse emissions related to concrete production to zero.
