A 1-2Mtpa low-carbon geopolymer concrete plant is proposed for precast production of some 1,600 port modules as well as other infrastructure requiring some 750,000 cum of concrete and thereafter the plant can be repurposed for other products for local markets such as reef modules and wall panels. Geopolymer concrete can be the replacement for conventional concrete and be made from wastederived materials thereby having a significantly lower carbon footprint. The plant is designed to be operated by renewable energy and an energy audit estimated that a 1Mtpa geopolymer production plant needs 100-200 GWh pa to operate. This could be served by a renewable energy power station with a mix of wind turbines and solar PV farm producing green hydrogen for energy storage and electric fuel cells. In the option of PV50%+wind50%+hydrogenstorage the total cost was estimated to be ∃20-30M USD. If electricity is assumed ∃100/MWh then this is worth ∃10-20M USD pa and the payback is 15 years approx. ## Keywords - Carbon fibers - Hydrogen - Circular economy - Environmental science - Geology - Materials science - Physics - Ecology - Biology - Composite material - Composite number - Quantum mechanics --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
