Listen "#22 - The use of rice for architecture: Ricehouse"
Episode Synopsis
Katerina explains how a house can be sustainable and compostable by using the rice waste and how it can last up to 70 years.
"From the beginning of our activity in 2016, we managed to reduce around 400 tons of CO2 just by preventing the burning of the rice residues. And to this data, we need to add up the CO2 that is trapped during the life cycle of the buildings...in fact, the rice husk and straw continue to absorb CO2 during the entire life cycle of the building in which they're inserted."
