GHG EMISSIONS REDUCTION

The production of virgin cement currently accounts for roughly 8% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. One ton of produced cement equals one ton of CO2 in our atmosphere. 

​

As discussed in this paper by Bruce Blair

supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are recognized around the world as necessary components in high performance cement applications.  

​

In addition to the low permeability, high strength, low heat rise, and resistance to freezing and thawing characteristics, SCMs can be used either as separate components or as a constituent of a blended cement reducing the need for virgin cement and the associated GHG emissions.
