Chryso alongside cement producers to lower cement carbon footprint
The global cement industry is moving towards carbon neutrality with ambitious roadmaps. Following the European Union initiative to put in place a carbon Emission Trading System (ETS), several countries or regions in the world are in motion to define ETS or carbon taxes. To include product importation, numerous territories set carbon boarder tax.
To reach the objectives, the Cement industry is develloping new processes and cements and several challenges are faced to ensure their performances. Chryso provides innovative additives and close support to cement producers to reach their objectives.
Chryso’s solutions enable reductions of clinker content , energy consumption and also lower alternative fuel and SCM impact on cement and concrete performance.
The cement industry is fully involved in the reduction of cement CO2 footprint
CO2 emissions have already been reduced by 30% since 1990 but, there is still room for lowering cement carbon footprint in accordance with cement quality Standards.
However, cement plants have reached such high level of optimization that it is increasingly challenging to reduce further clinker content.
Chryso provides solutions to achieve further optimization leading to substantial CO2 and cost savings for cement producers.
In recent projects, Chryso®Strength Enhancers have allowed to achieve considerable performance on blended cements.
