Project Name | ENERGY EFFICIENT, INCREMENTALLY SCALABLE, CONTINUOUS BASALT FIBER MANUFACTURING PROCESS |
Project Detail | Neuvokas Corporation will develop an energy-efficient CBF manufacturing process. The project will focus delivering a filament-forming extrusion bushing capable of supporting the production of low-cost, high-quality CBF at scale. Using CBF instead of steel to reinforce concrete can reduce capital expenses, greenhouse gases, and operating expenses, and increase concrete service life and time to major maintenance by more than 30 years, saving greater than 0.5 quad (146,535,500,000 kWh) of energy per year. |
