Scientists develop eco‑friendly bricks using desert sand to replace carbon-heavy Portland cement
Scientists at the University of Sharjah report that they have successfully transformed desert sand into construction bricks that are more sustainable than conventional cement or fired-clay bricks. Their innovation heralds a promising alternative to Portland cement, which accounts for up to 10% of global carbon dioxide emissions.
