Key Data Set Information
Location CN
Name
cement production;cement, ordinary portland cement;new dry, 2500 t/d
Use advice for data set Data users should consider this LCA data specifically for cement production employing slag inclusion, with the slag content at about 10%. Bear in mind the slag’s influence on energy consumption during the grinding process. The system boundaries provided include only the stages from mining to transportation; users evaluating wider environmental impacts should include subsequent cement use and end-of-life phases. Data applicability should be limited to contexts with technology levels and production scales resembling typical Chinese cement plants described herein.
Technical purpose of product or process Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), produced using the new dry process, is employed in general construction activities including residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects. It is suitable for concrete structures, bridges, pavements, and where 42.5 MPa strength cement is required. This data set pertains to cement with an inclusion of approximately 10% slag, a byproduct used to supplement traditional clay materials, adapting to sustainable practices.
