Abstract

After water, cement is the most frequently used material on the planet, and the cement industry is critical to any country's economic prosperity. When mixed with water, it produces concrete, which serves as the foundation for buildings, roads, dams, and bridges. According to studies, the cement sector accounts for approximately 8% of global warming carbon dioxide emissions, far more than global carbon emissions from aviation, for example. In this context, the cement industry needs to implement major innovations to ensure sustainability, energy efficiency, and a lower carbon footprint. The scientific publication discusses the most current advances in cement manufacturing, with a focus on methods and technology for achieving sustainability and integrating the cement sector into the circular economy. The study examines the relationship between annual worldwide carbon dioxide emissions and annual global emissions from cement production. The correlation shows that carbon dioxide emissions from cement production have a significant impact on annual worldwide carbon dioxide emissions, emphasising the critical need to apply contemporary, sustainable solutions in this industry.
