Alternative cement clinkers

Abstract: This article reviews proposed technical approaches for the manufacture and use of alternatives to Portland Cement Clinker as the main reactive binder component for ordinary concrete construction in nonspecialty applications, while giving lower net global CO2 emissions in use. A critical analysis, taking into account a wide range of technical considerations, suggests that, with the exception of alkali-activated systems, (treated in a separate paper in this issue,) there are only four classes of alternative clin… Show more

“…Slightly less well examined is the potential mitigation of environmental impacts from the use of alternative cements, such as alkali-activated materials (e.g. [16]) or cement systems with different mineral composition to conventional cements [17]. Yet, the use of these materials has not been consistently codified, and for some, further material characterization is still needed [18,19].…”

“…Recently, there are four classes of alternative clinker system that deserve serious attention with respect to global reductions in concrete-related CO 2 emissions [5]; reactive belite-rich Portland cement clinkers (RBPC), beliteye'elimite-ferrite clinkers, carbonatable calcium silicate clinkers, magnesium oxides derived from magnesium silicates.…”

“…For RBPC the belite content is more than 40% and alite normally less than 35%, making belite the most abundant phase in RBPC, as opposed to alite in OPC. The manufacture of RBPC therefore leads to lower specific energy consumption and CO 2 emissions, and also has the additional practical advantage of requiring less high-grade (low-silica) limestone as a raw material [5]. The ideal clinkering temperature for RBPC is usually close to 1350 °C, which is about 100 °C lower than the average for OPC, which can lead to somewhat lower kiln heat consumption and permit more use of low-grade kiln fuels.…”

“…La fabricación del CP suele ser muy contaminante, al emitirse alrededor de 90% de los gases de efecto invernadero respecto de todo el proceso de elaboración del concreto hidráulico debido a la cantidad de energéticos que se emplean, como carbón, aceite nuevo o reciclado, gas natural o neumáticos (Miller et al, 2016a). Es posible usar otros materiales alternativos como sustitución parcial del CP (Gartner and Sui, 2017), como la Pumicita (Hossain, 2004;Shi, 2001), en la que debe aplicar una activación mecánica (Bernotat and Schönert, 1998,36) y química (Shi and Day, 2000) para habilitarlo como un material cementante. En el caso del concreto utilizado en las vías terrestres, éste debe cumplir con criterios de diseño óptimos como es la resistencia a la compresión, flexión (o módulo de ruptura) o tensión por compresión diametral, para resistir y distribuir las cargas debidas al paso de los vehículos.…”
