Two of the world’s biggest cement producers, Holcim and CRH, have announced a $75-million investment into Sublime Systems, of the US, which has developed an electrochemical method of cement production that avoids the process of heating up limestone with kilns powered by fossil fuels. In tests at its 250-ton-per-year pilot plant, Sublime has been able to demonstrate a 90% reduction in carbon emissions when compared with the traditional process. Photograph: Bloomberg
