Chement is a Chicago-based pre-seed startup working to eliminate 8% of carbon emissions released by cement production each year. To do this, Chement is scaling its process for net-zero carbon production of Portland cement. This room-temperature electrochemical process utilizes renewable electricity, avoiding emissions from coal-fired kilns of conventional cement production. The resulting cement achieves high performance with reduced calcium content, thereby reducing the amount of direct emission
