  新SAT必读演讲:生态石膏板

  Kevin Surace

  Kevin Surace is looking at the climate crisis from an engineer's perspective — and creating products that prove there's no piece of our daily lives we can't redesign to be cleaner and greener.

  Why you should listen

  Kevin Surace wants to reduce the use of fossil fuels and their effect on the environment by greening manufacturing processes that create the basic components of our everyday life. As CEO of Serious Materials, he's helping to reduce the energy usage (and CO2 emissions) generated by the world's largest contributor -- buildings.

  Before Serious Materials, Surace worked with Perfect Commerce, General Magic, Air Communications, National Semiconductor and Seiko-Epson.

  What others say

  “Kevin Surace of Serious Materials is proof that rethinking, retooling and re-acting can turn a bleak labor situation into bright green opportunities.” — On the Green Front

  So we all look at what we can do. And when you look at the worldwide sources of CO2, 52 percent are tied to buildings. Only nine percent is passenger cars, interestingly enough. So we ran off to a sushi bar. And at that sushi bar we came up with a great idea. And it was something called EcoRock. And we said we could redesign the 115-year-old gypsum drywall process that generates20 billion pounds of CO2 a year. So it was a big idea. We wanted to reduce that by 80 percent,which is exactly what we've done.

  We started R&D in 2006. Decided to use recycled content from cement and steel manufacturing.There is the inside of our lab. We haven't shown this before. But our people had to do some 5,000different mixes to get this right, to hit our targets. And they worked absolutely very, very, very hard.So then we went forward and built our production line in China. We don't build this production equipment any longer in the U.S., unfortunately.
