Get an overview to learn the Basics of properties of cement and know how the carbon dioxide is being removed                          ABSTRACT Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world because of its beauty, strength, and  durability, among other benefits. Concrete is used in nearly every type of construction, including  homes, buildings, roads, bridges, airports, and subways. And in an era of increased attention to the  environmental impact of construction, concrete performs well when compared to other building  materials. As with any building product, the production of concrete and its ingredients does require energy  that in turn results in the generation of carbon dioxide, or CO2. The amount of CO2 produced during  manufacturing and the net impact of using concrete as a building material is relatively small. The  following features of concrete construction help minimize its carbon footprint. Atmospheric concentrations of CO2 are expressed in units of parts per
