Among the standard use for concrete fabrication, designers have a new edge for an industrial aesthetic. This is a new way to add greater novelty to concrete-countertops. Ash used from rice husks as a cement substitute is a new step to going GREEN with two very old building materials.
Michael Reilly reported "Rice husks form small cases around edible kernels of rice and are rich in silicon dioxide, an essential ingredient in concrete. Scientists have recognized the potential value of rice husks as a building material for decades, but past attempts to burn it produced an ash too contaminated with carbon to be useful as a cement substitute."
