There is a great need for strengthening of research in production of limestone based products, especially in the high temperature processes where substantial amounts of carbon dioxide is generated. The Centre for Sustainable Cement and Quicklime Production joins a strong research environment with the largest Swedish industrial actors in cement and quicklime production.
Slag as a raw material provides more environmentally friendly cement – but how is the quality effected?
By introducing biofuels instead of fossil fuels in lime kilns carbon dioxide emissions have decreased.
Cooperation on the implementation of oxygen and hydrogen enriched combustion in the production of quicklime.
They are awarded for the creation of a competence center for sustainable production of cement and quicklime.
