Clay Processing for the Cement Industry

Dr. Allistair Wilkinson

The cement industry is responsible for approximately 8% of total global CO2 emissions annually. This is largely due to high temperature processing of limestone as the main raw material in the production of clinker. Clay, typically shale, can also account for approximately 10% of the raw material used in cement production, providing important chemical compounds necessary for producing high-quality clinker.…
