Electric recycling of Portland cement at scale. [PDF]
Cement production causes 7.5% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions, arising from limestone decarbonation and fossil-fuel combustion1–3. Current decarbonation strategies include substituting Portland clinker with supplementary materials, but these mainly

Effects of Supplemetary Cementitious Materials on the Air Permeability of Concrete [PDF]
In order to support the use of cement combination concrete in construction, this paper investigated the resistance of Portland cement and some binary and ternary cement concretes containing fly ash, silica fume and metakaolin to air permeability at equal

Characteristics of Ferrite-Rich Portland Cement: Comparison With Ordinary Portland Cement
The cement industry is an energy-intensive industry, and improving the energy efficiency of cement has become necessary to reduce its carbon footprint and to compete in the global market. Clinker production consumes more than 90% of the total energy used

Biochar affects compressive strength of Portland cement composites: a meta-analysis [PDF]
One strategy to reduce CO2 emissions from cement production is to reduce the amount of Portland cement produced by replacing it with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs).

Hydration and Fractal Analysis on Low-Heat Portland Cement Pastes Using Thermodynamics-Based Methods
Low-heat Portland (LHP) cement is a kind of high-belite cement, which has the characteristic of low hydration heat. Currently, it is extensively used in the temperature control of mass concrete. Based on the thermodynamic database of OPC-based materials,
