CPR News recently highlighted Associate Professor Mija Hubler's innovative, bacteria-based alternative to concrete and her appearance in the documentary "Women of Carbon." Her sustainable building material is helping reduce the carbon footprint of construction.

CEAE's Mija Hubler is featured in 'Women of Carbon,' a documentary on women reshaping construction through sustainable innovation.

Two department projects funded by the Climate Innovation Collaboratory, an ongoing alliance between Deloitte Consulting LLP and CU �鶹ӰԺ, will develop tools to reduce carbon: one for optimizing data center energy storage, led by Associate Professor Kyri Baker, and one for evaluating local materials in cement, led by Associate Professor Mija Hubler.

CEAE's Living Materials Laboratory helped engineer microbes that create bioglass microlenses, advancing medical imaging technology.

Prometheus Materials, a zero-carbon building materials company spun out of the labs of Wil Srubar, Mija Hubler and Sherri Cook, along with partner groups will receive $10 million from the DOE to study the removal of carbon dioxide from cement.

CEAE's Kyri Baker, Mija Hubler and JH Song won Deloitte Climate Innovation Collaboratory awards for translating research into solutions.

CU �鶹ӰԺ faculty developed an eco-friendly cement that emits little to no carbon dioxide and recycles 95 percent of its water. In 2021, they commercialized it as Prometheus Materials. The company produces bio-concrete using blue-green algae, mimicking natural processes that form seashells and coral reefs.

Forbes Magazine is featuring groundbreaking research conducted by faculty members at CU �鶹ӰԺ in the field of eco-friendly concrete.Cement is a significant contributor to carbon emissions, responsible for about eight percent of global output

The article, "Carbon-Negative Pilot," was published in the August issue of  Concrete International magazine. Authors include Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering researchers Yao Wang, a post doctoral research associate

CEAE Professor Mija Hubler landed a $10 million DOD grant to develop self-repairing concrete inspired by human vascular systems.
