SUSTAINABILITY OF CEMENT AND CONCRETE

07/07/2015· Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials in the world. However, the production of Portland cement, an essential constituent of concrete, leads to the release of significant amount of CO 2, a greenhouse gas (GHG). The production of one tonne of Portland cement produces about one tonne of CO 2 and other GHGs. The

Fire and Explosion Hazards in Cement

Cement plants are energy intensive industries and have a large number of heavy duty electrical equipment used for distribution, control, and electric power utilization. Large quantities of insulation oil used in equipment like switchgears, transformers, and capacitors are combustible in nature and pose a major fire hazard. Fire hazards also arise from largescale electrical cabling carried out
