Quantitative Assessment of the Sulphoaluminate Cement Embodied Carbon Emissions
Publication: ICCREM 2022
ABSTRACT
Cement industry is one of the most carbon emissions intensive sectors with 8%–9% of global carbon emissions. The sulphoaluminate cement is the hydraulic cementitious material with many excellent properties, and there is less limestone and the lower calcinate temperature than the Portland cement, but the GHG emissions has been not quantitative studied of the whole process. The carbon emissions of the embodied phase of Chinese sulphoaluminate cement were calculated and analyzed by the method of life cycle assessment. The results would provide reference for cement companies and industries to make the strategy and tactics of “carbon emissions reduction and carbon peak.”
