Abstract
The invention provides compositions and methods directed to carbonation of a cement mix during mixing. The carbonation may be controlled by one or more feedback mechanisms to adjust carbon dioxide delivery based on one or more characteristics of the mix or other aspects of the mixing operation.
Claims20
A system for carbonating a cement mix at a mix site comprising
- (i) a mixer for mixing the cement mix;
- (ii) an apparatus to deliver carbon dioxide to the cement mix while the mix is mixing;
- (iii) a telemetry system to transmit information regarding the cement mix to a central location remote from the mix site, wherein the central location stores data regarding the cement mix for use in future cement mixes and/or for use in modification of the same or similar cement mix in the mixer or in other mixers.
