• Abstract:
  Project 0-7231 evaluated the feasibility and readiness of Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) technologies for integration into Texas transportation infrastructure. The study provided a comprehensive review of CCUS methods, assessed material-based applications such as CO₂-injected concrete and bio-based alternatives, and developed a life cycle assessment (LCA) framework tailored to TxDOT projects. While not necessarily intended for immediate implementation, the research equips TxDOT with the knowledge, tools, and policy guidance needed to respond rapidly if future legislation, funding programs, or sustainability policies prioritize CCUS deployment.
