Emissions from the Cement Industry - State of the Planet

2012-5-9  Cement manufacturing is highly energy- and emissions-intensive because of the extreme heat required to produce it. Producing a ton of cement requires 4.7 million BTU of energy, equivalent to about 400 pounds of coal, and generates nearly a ton of CO 2. Given its high emissions and critical importance to society, cement is an obvious place to ...

Cement Production : Gasmet

Cement Plants’ Emissions Monitoring . Cement plants in general follow their own emissions monitoring standards. In cement plants, the flue gas generally includes carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxides (NOx), sulphur dioxide (SO2), mercury and dust. SO2 emissions are mostly derived from the raw material, whereas more than half of the CO2 ...

Capturing CO2 from cement plants: A priority for reducing ...

2016-7-1  CCS (carbon capture and storage) plays an indispensable role in the technology roadmap of CO 2 emissions control for China as a coal-dependent country. China is the world's largest cement producer, and capturing CO 2 from China's cement production should be a critical component of the overall strategy for reducing carbon emissions. In this study, we investigate the roles of the three

Cement – Analysis - IEA

Reducing CO 2 emissions while producing enough cement to meet demand will be challenging, especially since demand growth is expected to resume as the slowdown in Chinese activity is offset by expansion in other markets.. Key strategies to cut carbon emissions in cement production include improving energy efficiency, switching to lower-carbon fuels, promoting material efficiency (to reduce

Towards net-zero emission cement and power production ...

Achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions in cement production requires major reductions in both process and energy emissions. This study proposes an integrated low emission cement and power production (LECAPP) system that incorporates external reforming molten carbonate fuel cells to capture the CO 2 emissions from a natural gas-fired cement plant.
