  • <p><strong><span lang="EN-GB">New European Project "CILANTRO" Officially Launches in Brussels to Fight Climate Change with Carbon-Negative Cement</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span lang="EN-GB">Brussels, 17 October 2025</span></strong><span lang="EN-GB"> — A major new European project, <strong>CILANTRO</strong>, has officially launched in Brussels. This project aims to revolutionize the cement industry, a significant source of global CO₂ emissions, by creating the world's first carbon-negative cement.</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-GB">Funded by the European Innovation Council EIC - Pathfinder call on "Towards cement and concrete as a carbon sink", CILANTRO is pioneering a new, eco-friendly process that completely avoids the need for traditional, high-temperature production methods that burn fossil fuels.</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-GB">Instead, the project will use a groundbreaking non-thermal technology that creates cement's key ingredient using mechanical force and employing hydrogen as a key feedstock. This new process will not only prevent CO₂ from being released but will also produce valuable gases for clean fuels.</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-GB">"The launch of CILANTRO marks a crucial first step in our ambitious journey to redefine the future of cement," </span><span lang="EN-GB">said Dr. Román Nevshupa, project coordinator from the IETCC-CSIC. </span><span lang="EN-GB">"This project represents a truly groundbreaking, high-risk/high-gain approach to a critical environmental challenge, and we are thrilled to begin working with our partners to make this vision a reality."</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-GB">The four-year project brings together a powerful team of researchers and industry partners from across Europe. The goal is to develop and validate a new method for cement production that doesn't just reduce emissions—it actively absorbs them offering a cost-effective way toward a more sustainable and greener future for our buildings and cities.</span></p> <p><strong><span lang="EN-GB">About the CILANTRO Project</span></strong></p> <p><span lang="EN-GB">The CILANTRO project is a part of a portfolio of six European projects carefully selected and focused on developing a clean, carbon-negative alternative to traditional cement. The project aims to eliminate the CO₂ emissions associated with current production methods and develop a new cement manufacturing technology that results in net negative CO₂<span>  </span>emissions over the cement's lifetime.</span></p> <p><strong><span lang="EN-GB">Contact</span></strong></p> <p><span lang="EN-GB">Michalis Vasilakis</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-GB">F6S</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="mailto:michalis@f6s.com"><span>michalis@f6s.com</span></a></span></p>
