text: More recently, it has been proposed as a near-carbon-neutral construction material. Its waterless and less energy-intensive production (in comparison with ordinary cement and regular concrete) makes it a potential alternative for high--emission portland-cement-based materials. Due to improvements in fabrication techniques, it can be produced in high quality and large quantities. Recyclable sulfur concrete sleepers are used in Belgium for the railways infrastructure, and are mass-produced locally. THIOTUBE is the brand name for certified acid-resistant DWF (dry weather flow) discharge pipes used in Belgium.
