DTE Materials

ACCELERATING THE RATE OF CLIMATE INNOVATION BY:

Accelerating concrete decarbonization through low-cost, low-capex bioaggregate solutions that directly reduce emissions by ~40%.

PROBLEM FOCUS
Concrete remains one of the world’s most carbon-intensive materials, with heavy aggregates driving high emissions, freight costs, and labor demands. DTE addresses this by replacing sand and gravel with lightweight, carbon-storing bioaggregates that cut embodied emissions by up to 40%.
TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION
DTE’s patented Clearwash process transforms biomass waste into carbon-storing bioaggregates that are chemically compatible with concrete. These bioaggregates replace sand and gravel with no changes to existing processes, enabling permanent carbon storage and emissions reductions through a modular system that fits in two shipping containers for distributed production.
