Sounds super interesting and promising.
Some of the ecological challenges presented by bio-concrete production, as outlined in the paper, is the high energy needs for synthesizing urea, and effluent run off.
Other challenges stated are the corrosion of steel reinforcements from the calcium chloride. One would need corrosion resistant reinforcements.
