Analysis of theoretical carbon dioxide emissions from cement production: Methodology and application

Song Nie et al.

Summary: This study aims to develop a model to analyze the theoretical CO2 emissions of alternative low-carbon cements. The model can calculate the fuel consumed in the production of new low-carbon cements and predict their CO2 emissions. The results show differences in CO2 emissions between low-carbon binders and ordinary Portland cement.

Effects of incorporating large quantities of copper tailings with various particle sizes on the strength and pore structure of cement-based materials

Sung-Ching Chen et al.

Summary: Although a large amount of copper tailings is produced in China annually, only a small percentage is reused. In this study, tailings from Hubei and Jiangxi were explored as replacement materials for fine aggregate, and the effects on the mechanical properties and pore structure of cement mortar were evaluated. The results showed that the inclusion of tailings can improve the flexural and compressive strength of cement mortar.

Synthesis and characterization of cement clinker using recycled pulverized oyster and scallop shell as limestone substitutes

Sungwun Her et al.

Summary: Developments in the aquaculture industry have increased shellfish production, but the lack of proper recycling methods for discarded shells is causing marine environmental pollution. By using pulverized oyster and scallop shells as raw materials in cement production, it has been found that they can be suitable substitutes for limestone, indicating a sustainable alternative.

Revealing the substitution preference of zinc in ordinary Portland cement clinker phases: A study from experiments and DFT calculations

Jianping Zhu et al.

Summary: The research investigated the doping behaviors of Zn in OPC clinker and found that Zn can replace Ca in C3S and C2S, and Fe in C(4)AF, resulting in a decrease in the content of C(3)A. The similarity in electron contributions and small structure distortions between Zn and host ions restrict its solubility in C(4)AF.

Probing the exact form and doping preference of magnesium in ordinary Portland cement clinker phases: A study from experiments and DFT simulations

Ruiqi Zhao et al.

Summary: The systematic study on the existence form and doping behaviors of magnesium in ordinary Portland cement (OPC) clinker reveals that MgO incorporates into the clinker phases as substitutional solid solutions and periclase. The results also show a substitution preference in C3S and C(3)A over C2S, with different substitution mechanisms identified in different phases. The low solubility of magnesium in OPC clinker is determined by large structure distortions and sharp increase in formation energies with increasing MgO content.

Solid waste-based magnesium phosphate cements: Preparation, performance and solidification/stabilization mechanism

Qiushi Zhang et al.

Summary: This review systematically summarizes 121 relevant literatures on solid waste-based magnesium phosphate cement (MPC) published in the past 15 years, evaluating over 40 types of solid waste-based MPCs and exploring the hydration kinetics of MPC and the action principles of doped elements. Gaps in solid waste-based MPC in terms of cost, performance, and safety are analyzed, and future development trends including life cycle assessment, long-term stability, and priority of mechanism studies are investigated.
