BEIJING, June 10 (Xinhua) -- Chinese authorities have set specific carbon emission reduction targets for the cement industry as the country moves toward a low-carbon economy. From 2024 to 2025, China plans to cut carbon dioxide emissions by around 13 million tonnes through industrial renovation a...
This demand has, however, entailed an unacceptable increase in the carbon emissions as the cement manufacturing industry is one of the most carbon releasing industries in the world; responsible for a large part of the global carbon emissions. The dangerously high levels of Carbon Dioxide have ...

accounting for about 13%. In the process of cement manufacturing, limestone is required to be burned. A lot of carbon dioxide emissions will be generated in this process. In addition, coal combustion will lead to large overall emission. In addition, the cement industry is ...
“Our technology takes plastic out of the landfill, locks it up in concrete, and also uses less cement to make the concrete, which makes fewer carbon dioxide emissions,” explained Michael Short, an assistant professor in MIT’s Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering. “This has the pot...
CEMEX has announced that the Science Based Targets initiative has validated the company’s 2030 global carbon emissions targets, which are a key component of Future in Action, CEMEX’s programme focused on developing low-carbon products, solutions, and processes to trans...
Mexico:Cemex has been named by the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) as the best Latin American company in terms of climate change data disclosure and one of the top ten in overall carbon emissions performance. The rankings were announced during the launching of the CDP's latest report, CDP Inv...
The cement industry is responsible for approximately 5% of global anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions. Atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases cannot be stabilized without addressing this important emissions source. The industry emits nearly 900 kg of CO{sub}2 for every 1000 kg of cement ...
Here we model global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and carbon uptake from the full life cycle of cement, and we calculate the time-dependent life cycle warming potential to more accurately identify the role of GHG mitigation strategies within the cement industry. Portland cement (referred to here...
Making cement sustainable:carbon and other emissions It is really a bit surprising that the Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI) happened-at all.When it began in the last year of last millennium,neither cement nor the cement industry was seen by green groups as a major environmental vill... ...
