This fire wasn’t accidental — it was engineered. Neanderthals in Britain, 400,000 years ago, struck pyrite to spark controlled fire. That single act may have ignited civilization itself.

So, knowing a bit about how #BoricAcid can absorb #Radiation, I think we're onto something here. Not that we should create more #NuclearWaste. But we do need to store the stuff we've already produced safely!

UrFU Scientists Have Developed #Ceramic Material that Protects Against Radiation

Friday, November 7, 2025

"Scientists at Ural Federal University, in collaboration with colleagues from Iraq and Saudi Arabia, have developed a durable, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly ceramic material that protects against radiation. The new material is made from natural clay and recycled glass waste.

"Researchers believe this ceramic can be used in radiation-hazardous facilities, X-ray rooms, and laboratories to protect medical, scientific, and industrial personnel. The results of the study were published in the Journal of Science: Advanced Materials and Devices.

" 'We mixed clay imported from Iraq with glass production waste and a small amount of Boric acid. This allowed us to create durable and inexpensive ceramics that effectively protect against gamma radiation. The addition of glass increases the strength of the tile. This method allows for the disposal of glass waste in building materials, including it, which is particularly important for the construction of radiation-hazardous facilities and X-ray rooms where the use of lead is undesirable,' said Karem Makhmud, Head Specialist of the Department of Nuclear Power Plants and Renewable Energy Sources."

Scientist makes groundbreaking discovery while studying ancient Roman technique for concrete: 'We have a huge potential'

by Calvin Coffee
Sun, August 31, 2025

"Concrete has a massive carbon footprint. One researcher from the University of Auckland is working to reduce it by studying ancient #Roman techniques. Using natural volcanic materials and industrial byproducts, he's incorporating #pumice and #seashells to create an #EcoFriendly, traditional alternative.

"At the Structures Testing Laboratory in Newmarket, New Zealand, Enrique Del Rey Castillo blends volcanic ash and kaimoana shells as replacements in the cement-making process, leveraging their #SelfHealing properties, which can repair cracks over time through natural chemical reactions.

"This initiative is crucial, as concrete is one of the world's most polluting materials, with global cement production accounting for 8% of total carbon emissions, contributing to rising global temperatures and increasing health risks.

"Del Rey Castillo has spent years testing how local materials can serve as sustainable alternatives. After focusing on conventional substitutes such as fly ash, he shifted to natural materials available nearby.

" 'I realised we have a huge potential in New Zealand with the use of natural #volcanic materials and #byproducts of primary industries,' Del Rey Castillo said.

"Concrete is essential for constructing bridges, roads, dams, and buildings, but its production releases over 4 billion tons of carbon dioxide annually. Calcining cement-primary materials at 1,500 degrees Celsius in a kiln emits large amounts of carbon dioxide and produces chemical reactions. Each pound of concrete releases 0.93 pounds of carbon dioxide.

"Pumice, however, doesn't require the energy-intensive calcining process; it just needs to be dried at 100 degrees Celsius to remove moisture before being ground into a fine powder. 'The carbon footprint is about 8-10% of the carbon footprint of cement,' Del Rey Castillo explained."

Engineers Weigh Up Returning to #Ancient #RomanConcrete Recipes

Carly Cassella
Wed, July 30, 2025

"The ancient Romans might have taught us a thing or two about manufacturing #sustainable concrete that lasts for thousands of years.

"A new study has rigorously analyzed the raw materials and energy demands of their ancient recipe, revealing some useful ways to improve modern cement.

"Surprisingly, researchers found that producing Roman mortar and concrete requires more water and more greenhouse gas emissions than #PortlandCement – the most common type of cement used in concrete today.

"But while the initial energy costs may be steeper, Roman concrete formulations could ultimately prove more sustainable in the long run. That's because they may not need to be replaced or repaired as often."
