Figure 3.3.2. Relationship between liquid phase and temperature as a function of A/F ratio. A LSF value expresses the theoretical limit to the amount of lime (CaO) that can be added to a mix until all of the calcium would be combined into clinker compounds, with no C2S remaining.
— Cement industry is a very emissions-intensive process. Around 50% of the emissions come from converting the limestone into clinker, 40% comes from burning the fuels, and the rest comes from transportation and electricity. ... The material preparation can be done in on-site or off-site. Plastic can be transported either to the kiln or to the ...
— Temporary cementation is not just a small final step in a crown and bridge appointment, but the critical link in creating a well-sealed transitional restoration. The temporary cement creates a microbial barrier between the prosthesis and the tooth, helping to ensure that the pulp remains vital and dentin does not demineralize. Temporary …

Cement manufacturing is the source of 5% of global CO2 emissions. The cement industry is a natural producer of CO2: 60% of emissions are due to the transformation of raw materials at high temperatures (the "decarbonation" of limestone) 40% result from the combustion required to heat the cement kilns to 1500°
— The cement production process emits approximately 0.9 tons of CO 2 per ton of cement (Hasanbeigi et al. 2010), accounting for about 5–8% of global CO 2 emissions and ranking as the second-largest CO 2 emissions source (Mikulčić et al. 2016; Kajaste and Hurme 2016).According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) …
