Roman methods are not how modern concrete is produced. As the article mentions, concrete production involves heating massive amounts, spewing loads of carbon dioxide & other toxins into the atmosphere.

That's why I was proposing using the older method that would sequester CO2 instead of emitting it.

Get back to the start with the stuff. Continue to study other ways utilize it in recycling/upcycling, but start with the carbon negative old ways at the core.
