Kiln electrification key to decarbonisation of manufacturing in cement industry
India, May 1 -- The technology can reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the industry by upto 40 per cent
The cement industry is one of the largest contributors to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily due to the energy-intensive nature of cement production processes. Concrete, made from cement, is the second most consumed material in the world , after water.
Cement production heavily relies on fossil fuels like coal and natural gas. Globally, the cement industry contributes about 8 per cent of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions . This dependence on fossil fuels is a significant source of GHG emissions.
