Carbonation as a method to improve climate performance for cement based material
Open accessAbstract
Concrete is today considered to be a crucial material in the ongoing complex transformation of our society in a sustainable direction. One prioritized requirement in this transformation is to reduce the emissions of CO2 that are associated with concrete production and use. One well-known factor which, so far, has not been considered is (re)carbonation of built concrete products over their life cycle. This paper presents research to quantify such uptake in reports to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). It also presents the current status of considering carbonation in the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) and in International Environmental Product Declarations (EPD). The paper also presents some possibilities for further research on how to improve climate performance by considering carbonation.

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Also referred to as 'recarbonation', natural carbonation of concrete takes place over years to decades during and after service life and partially resorbs the CO2 that was emitted by calcination of limestone during cement production [10].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
