	Is anyone doing this bellite concrete, or is that very rare because it just doesn't perform? What are the use cases for Bell light cement and how common is it? Is this really a good choice for economically significant production that is civilization grade?		Is anyone doing this bellite concrete, or is that very rare because it just doesn't perform? What are the use cases for Bell light cement and how common is it? Is this really a good choice for economically significant production that is civilization grade?

			Plant for fifty homes per year can cost $250k as a safe bet. 1000 yards to 3000 yards can be $150k-$450k value per year. Energy cost in PV is $3k-$10k, showing good return.
