Low CO2 Cement

Amorphous silica and calcium carbonate (gypsum) are bi-products of the alumina production process. The silica and calcium can be used to produce a cement clinker that does not use limestone and eliminates the CO2 produced from burning limestone that generates process emissions responsible for the majority of cement's overall emissions
