Prof. Joseph Davidovits visiting India in 2010, to expand research collaboration
pany, Rockwool, a manufacturer of insulating
material, has found a
way to capture, recycle and re-use tons of
waste generated from
the manufacturing process, using a geopolymer to bind the waste
into briquettes. The
briquettes of geopolymer material are fed
back into the furnace
and made into fibers
for Rockwool insulation.
The plant has been running this geopolymer
process since 2007, yet
59
the company made it
public only in December
2011, 4 years later. But
you are right in stating
that no bridge has, so
far, been built in geopolymer concrete.
