The process works by integrating CO₂ and steam—byproducts of industrial processes—into the concrete mix during 3D printing.

Researchers at Tohoku University's Institute for Materials Research and New Industry Creation Hatchery Center have made a breakthrough in a multi-material 3D printing technique, demonstrating the process for creating a lightweight yet durable automobile part.

Scientists at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have created a 3D concrete printing technique that captures carbon, indicating a new avenue to lessen the environmental impact of the construction industry,
