Vietnam: The government will allocate greenhouse gas emissions quotas to 150 facilities across the cement, thermal power and steel sectors, according to a draft decree discussed by the government. Under the proposed roadmap, quota allocation will be implemented in phases over the next five years....
The cement industry plays a decisive role in this transition. On the one hand, it contributes nearly 7% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions (Sambataro et al., 2023a). On the other hand, cement stands as the world's second most used substance, after water, enabling cost-effective...
Since the production of cement requires a large amount of energy (about 2.9-3.2 GJt-1), the substitution of cement by fly ash saves not only energy but also reduces the associated greenhouse gas emissions. The paper evaluates the reduction of CO2 emissions that can be achieved by these ...
The increasing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is leading cement manufacturers to rethink. They need an alternative that is cost-efficient and at the same time provides high-quality cement. This is exactly what Polysius activated clay offers." Published in Global Cement News Read more...
Scientists and governments alike have called for increasingly stringent greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions targets as the consequences of climate change become more apparent. Recently, the goalpost has shifted from keeping the temperature rise below 2.0 degrees Celsius to 1.5 degrees Celsius, with more ...
Redesign is likely the biggest decarbonization lever in the short term and has the greatest potential to help the cement industry reach net-zero emissions by 2050. However, it also requires the greatest investment and risk and the longest wait until payoff. Success could hinge on government ...
The process by which modern cement is manufactured is also emissions-intensive, responsible for 6% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions today. Although cement usage in many developed regions has likely peaked, the industry is expected to undergo massive growth in many developing regions as ...
allowances to cover its emissions up to 2030 under current rules. This would mean that the EU ETS is giving the sector 25 years before it needs to start thinking about reducing greenhouse gas emissions, while the low-carbon transition needs to happen today if our industry is to have a ...
driven by legislation and greater environmental awareness among the public, it has turned to RDF as an alternative to fossil fuels. RDF also has the environmental advantage of redirecting the unrecyclable materials from MSW away from landfill, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and conserving landfill ...
