Biology in the Built Environment: Bio Based Concrete

Zuzalu Montenegro 2023 · 2 Apr 2023 · 30:00

Ginger Dosier, known for pioneering work on biocement, discusses using biological processes to grow concrete-like building materials, at Zuzalu Montenegro 2023. The talk covers how bacteria-driven mineralization can produce structural materials with a far smaller carbon footprint than traditional cement production, positioning bio-based concrete as a practical application of synthetic biology in construction.
