Inviting you to join the #1000 Solutions Challenge and submit your solution online here: submit online

The Shanghai Green Energy Innovation Centre (SGEIC), partnering with The World Alliance for Efficient Solution, calling for and selecting #1000solutions that can protect the environment in a profitable way,, and bring them to decision makers to encourage them to adopt more ambitious environmental targets and energy policies.

Here is one of the submitted solutions:

BIO DISPERSIS LC

Recycle vinasse, a polluting residue from the alcohol industry, into organic additives for concrete Highly water pollutant and difficult to dispose of, Bio DisperSis allows vinasse to be transformed for use as a more environmentally-friendly alternative to lignosulfonates used in concrete production.
Lignosulfonates are traditionally used to make concrete with less water, making it stronger, while allowing it to continue to flow. The Bio DisperSis process generates a dispersing base for the concrete admixture that is cheaper and has a lower carbon footprint than using lignosulfonates.
