Decarbonizing Cement with Gurinder Nagra of Furno Materials
Today we're joined by Gurinder Nagra, founder and CEO of Furno Materials.
Furno is on a mission to decarbonize cement production, a shockingly dirty industry responsible for 8% of global CO2 emissions.
In this episode we break down the process of making cement, why it is so dirty, and why Furno is more of a new industrials company than "climate tech" company.
Learn more about Furno here or get in touch with Gurinder at gurinder@furnomaterials.com
Note: at 23:19, "10-20 days of productions" should be corrected to "10-20 tons/days of production"
