The carbon emission of cement production mainly comes from the clinker production. The key to cut emission is to reduce the consumption of fossil energy and limestone. The major measures include energy efficiency improvement, alternative fuel usage, raw material substitution, and new low-carbon cement clinker production technology.
Wei et al. [30] discussed a low-carbon roadmap for China's cement industry to 2050, but the effectiveness of the roadmap is not evaluated. The research of Feng et al. [13] included innovative technologies like CCS and provided quantified results, only considered two energy-saving technologies (NSP & WHR), underestimated the emission reduction ...
The use of BR in Portland Cement Clinker (PCC) and Supplementary Cemeniious Materials (SCM) for blended cements have been ideniied as high impact opportuniies. Use of BR in these cement and concrete products has the potenial to contribute towards: • energy and CO 2 reducion; • natural resource uilisaion reducion; and • BR storage reducion.
Optimising the use of concrete in construction by reducing waste, encouraging reuse and recycling, maximising design life and using concrete's properties to minimise operational …
