Cement is responsible for 85% of concrete’s CO2 emissions although it only accounts for 12% of its composition. Clinker, its main constituent (produced by firing limestone and clay), is responsible for cement’s high carbon footprint due to:
– Heating of cement plant furnaces to 1500°C (1/3)
– The chemical reaction that releases carbon during firing (2/3)
Where do concrete’s CO2 emissions come from?
