INitrogen dioxide is classified as major atmospheric pollutant that threatens the health of humans and influences this planet by changing climate or by affecting Earth’s ecosystems and biological diversity. However, there is not much success in controlling the concentration of it. Recently, there has been effort to decrease atmospheric NOx in construction industry using various technologies. In this paper, NOx reduction technologies using cementitious materials that include photocatalysis, activated carbon adsorption process, and cement adsorption will be reviewed and compared. It is expected that the advances in NOx diminishing technologies will make our environment greener and healthier, and ultimately lead to sustainable development.
