Novel Processing Methods of Low-Clinker Multi-Component Cementitious Materials—A Review

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The wide use of multi-component cement of highly reduced Portland clinker factor is largely impeded by detrimental changes in the rheological properties of concrete mixes, a substantial reduction in the early rate of cement hardening, and sometimes the ...

Internal Carbon Cycles in the Steel Industry: Pathways for CO2 Management and Carbon Capture Utilization

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
The steel industry accounts for about 7%‐9% of global CO2 emissions. While H2‐based direct reduction is a long‐term route, near‐term solutions are needed for existing plants. Internal carbon cycles reuse steelworks off‐gases and by‐products, enabling circular carbon use and supporting CCU integration.

Performance of sustainable mortars containing blast furnace slag and fine concrete waste: an environmental perspective

open access: yesCogent Engineering
About 9% of the globe’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are attributed to cement production. The replacement of cement with blast furnace slag and fine concrete waste (FCW) could reduce the CO2 emissions associated with the construction sector ...

Prospective LCA of E‐Methanol Along the Transformation of Steel Industry

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
The environmental effects of change in steel production route on e‐methanol production are analyzed as they shift from blast furnace route to direct reduction route. Specific hydrogen demand reduces, as do the avoided CO2 emissions. E‐methanol's overall carbon footprint stays in a narrow range of −1 to −1.1 kg‐CO2‐eq./kg‐methanol.

Modelling Sustainability Performance in Manufacturing Companies

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nowadays, organisations need to operate with economic, social and environmental goals in mind. Indices objectively quantify such goals; hence, an organisation can develop and compare policies based on future index values. We propose a system dynamics‐based model of a manufacturing company that frames its operations in terms of a set of easily ...

Synergies and Trade‐Offs in Circular Economy and Community Development Nexus: Pathways to Local Sustainability

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent scholarship shows growing interest in the circular economy (CE) approach, which promotes resource‐efficient, community‐friendly activities. However, scientific evidence is still needed on the synergies and trade‐offs between CE and community development (CD).
