"Accidental Discovery Unveils Stronger, Cheaper Material with Dizzying Potential"

A material called Ferrock, initially developed as a cement substitute using waste steel dust and silica from pulverized glass, has shown to be stronger and more eco-friendly than concrete, with 95% of its materials being recycled. It has the potential to revolutionize building and infrastructure, offering increased strength and reduced pollution by pulling carbon dioxide from the air during the hardening process. Researchers are exploring various sustainable building materials, and while small-scale projects are currently more feasible due to the need for a reliable source of waste steel, further research into Ferrock and similar alternatives is encouraged for a greener future.
