#16 Rafik Kheffache – Using Solar Power To Make Construction Materials
Jordan sits down with Rafik Kheffache, founder of Heliosand (https://heliosand.com/), a French start-up using concentrated solar power to transform industrial waste into usable construction materials.
Rafik explains how his team is building massive solar furnaces capable of reaching 4,000°C to melt mud and toxic waste into glass-like rock, and why this breakthrough could disrupt cement production—the most carbon-intensive industry on Earth.
