A.. Boden, G. Marland, & R. J. Andres. cdiac.ornl.gov/epubs/ndp/ndp00/ndp00.htm#coman. CO Emissions from Cement Manufacturing Because cement manufacturing uses essentially 00% of the calcium oxide obtained from burning the calcium carbonate during calcination, the amount of calcium oxide content in the finished cement is a good measure of the amount of CO released during production (Griffin ). To determine the amount of CO released from cement manufacturing, one needs to know how much cement was manufactured, the average calcium oxide content per unit of cement, and a factor to convert the calcium oxide content into carbon dioxide equivalents. Cement production data published by the U.S. Bureau of Mines are currently reported in thousand short tons, but before the data were reported in barrels. To ensure consistent units throughout the - record, two equations were used to convert cement production estimates to units of metric tons. Cement production before was calculated by usi cement production (in metric tons) = 0. * quantity of cement produced (in barrels), () where 0. is the metric-ton equivalent for a barrel. After, net cement production was calculated by using cement production (in metric tons) = 0.0 * quantity of cement produced (in short tons), () where 0.0 is the metric-ton equivalent for a short ton. The amount of CO produced from cement production was calculated by using CO production (in metric tons of C) = 0. metric tons of C per metric ton cement? quantity of cement produced (metric tons) () This conversion factor was obtained by dividing the molar mass of carbon by the molar mass of calcium oxide and multiplying this quotient by the average fraction of calcium oxide contained in cement: (.0 g C/mole CaCO.0 g CaO /mole CaCO) * 0. g CaO /g cement = 0. g C /g cement () The consensus that.% of the typical cement in the world is composed of calcium oxide is based on the opinions of experts consulted in the field, as well as inspection of composition data by type and country (Griffin ).

Cell: K Emissions from cement fabrication are of two main types: Calcining process of calcium carbonate into clinker liberates carbon dioxide, and emissions from the energy used in the manufacturing process. Typically not included in the emissions estimates are transportation energy, the burning of wastes, or plant construction. Cell: E The industry calcination factor ranges from to 00 kg CO per tonne of clinker (net), but of course varies from company to company, and will tend to decrease over time as process efficiencies improve.

Cell: M USGS Minerals Yearbook 00, Table : Hydraulic Cement: World Production by Country 00-00, at: Cell: M World cement production in 00 (estimated):,00 thousand tonnes, Hendrik van Oss, USGS. Cell: AT CO is emitted during cement production in two ways. Approximately 0. t of CO is produced per ton of cement from combustion of fossil fuels to operate the rotary kiln. The second source is calcination, in which calcium carbonate (CaCO) from limestone, chalk, or other calcium-rich materi- als is heated in kilns to form lime (CaO) by driving off CO. This process produces about 0. t of CO per ton of cement. Thus, combining these two sources, for every ton of cement produced,. t of CO is released into the atmosphere of which % comes from energy inputs and 0% from calcination (Griffin, ). Worldwide, cement production accounted for approximately Mt of C emissions in, or about.% of total global carbon from oxidation of fossil fuels. The United States annually produces about. Mt C from cement production, or % of global cement-production carbon (CDIAC, ). Griffin, R.C., : CO release from cement production, -.
