Conclusions from the most innovative conference on decarbonization by using alternative fuesl and alternative raw materials are clear: financing green solutions and the implication of all stakeholders is essential for lowering the emmissions footprint of cement and construction, one of the heaviest polluters sectors. CarbonZero: Alternative Fuels and Raw Materials Global Conference and Exhibition 2024,...
CO2 emissions in clinker and cement production can be divided into two primary sources: emissions from raw materials decarbonization, and emissions from combustion. Several strategies exist to mitigate both types, which will be discussed in detail. Furthermore, to facilitate comparison, a hypothetical ‘standard kiln’ with 4000 tpd capacity, 800 kcal/kg thermal consumption, and a 40-60%...
