This Super Concrete Could Revolutionize the Climate Crisis
ZS2 Technologies, a Canadian-based manufacturer, wants to revolutionize the world of cement production. Cement, a widely-used material, contributes significantly to environmental emissions. However, ZS2 is on a mission to change that by developing a new type of cement that maintains its strength and resilience while significantly reducing its carbon footprint, all through the incorporation of carbon capture technology.
Drawing inspiration from the ocean's ability to absorb carbon, ZS2 employs an innovative process to create precast cement products that can play a vital role in combating the climate crisis by reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in their product by two thirds, compared to traditional Portland cement. Their approach focuses on utilizing local materials as they scale their technology in the coming years, effectively reducing costs and facilitating widespread adoption of their eco-friendly product.

XPRIZE is launching its indie film showcase – a series of short films following XPRIZE Carbon Removal teams and their efforts to pull carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere and oceans and sequester it durably and sustainably.
Every week, we’ll host exclusive Discord watch parties for those in our community to see the films before they premiere on the XPRIZE YouTube channel the following day.
Be sure to join the conversation on Discord at discord.gg/xprize and get ready to learn more about the impact these teams are making.
These videos were produced by independent film-makers through Storyhunter to showcase the diversity of teams and solutions in the competition. This series does not serve as an endorsement of any specific team or their XPRIZE entry.
