Abstract

Portland cement clinker is a very important compound of modern cements. CO2 emission during the calcination of calcium carbonate as raw material takes place in cement plants. Reduction of CO2 emission, the anthropologically caused climate change, is the focus of international initiatives, and hence, finding and development of strong alternatives are the key areas of researchers, policy makers, and plant operators.
