Key Data Set Information
Location CN
Reference year 2001
Name
cement production;cement, ordinary portland cement, 48.0MPa;mechanical vertical kiln;blast furnace slag
Use advice for data set When utilizing the LCA data from the described process, users must consider that the scope is confined from the entry of raw materials to the plant to their storage as cement, excluding mining, transport, and packaging processes. Therefore, any assessment or comparison should include similar system boundaries. Additionally, CO2 emissions are based on a single functional unit; for other quantities of cement, users need to adjust emission calculations proportionally.
Technical purpose of product or process The cement produced from this process, specifically ordinary portland cement with a strength of 48.0MPa, is likely employed in general construction activities such as structural concretes, bridges, roads, and buildings. This material is characterized by its mechanical performance and is suitable for both residential and commercial construction projects.
