What the source reported
Source-reported<p><img src="https://www.globalcement.com/images/news/handshake.jpg" /></p><p><strong>Canada: </strong>CRH Ventures has announced an investment in Canada-based EnviCore, developers of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) for the construction industry. EnviCore has developed a thermochemical process that can convert a range of mineral resources and industrial byproducts including clays, natural pozzolans, recycled concrete and glass, and mine tailings into SCMs. EnviCore's process can integrate with existing cement plant infrastructure to support more sustainable cementitious materials; an increasingly important capability as availability of traditional SCMs becomes more constrained in some regions. The investment will support EnviCore in building a facility with a planned production capacity of 200,000t/yr, as it advances its technology and prepares for commercial-scale production.</p> <p>As part of the broader partnership, CRH and EnviCore will continue working together to evaluate the technology and explore its potential across a range of materials before pursuing wider deployment.</p>
