CarbonBuilt’s mission is to enable concrete manufacturing to drive large-scale greenhouse gas reductions through the cost-effective utilization of carbon dioxide and other industrial wastes. Its Reversa process injects carbon dioxide emissions taken directly from industrial sources into proprietary low-carbon concrete formulations. This revolutionary approach reduces overall carbon dioxide emissions by more than 50 percent while creating end products that meet industry specifications and increase profitability for concrete producers. CarbonBuilt was spun out of UCLA’s Institute for Carbon Management, which is led by Professor Gaurav Sant of the Samueli School of Engineering. More information is available at www.carbonbuilt.com.
