Concrete and sustainable development
• There are a lot of misconceptions about cement and concrete with respect to sustainable development.
• If we want to improve things we have to start from a correct assessment of the situation
• We hear a lot about the fact that cement and concrete account for some 5-8% of man-made CO2
• What we don’t realise is that this is amazingly good for a material which makes up around half of everything produced.

Concrete: Low intrinsic environmental impact
ICE version 1.6aHammond G.P. and Jones C.I 2008 Proc Instn Civil Engineerswww.bath.ac.uk/mech-eng/sert/embodied/
Despite being intrinsically low energy materials,
The enormous volumes of concrete used mean that
Cement production accounts for 5-8% of global CO2 emissions

Indian scenario - present
Characteristic of Indian Cement Industry
• One of the most efficient in the world 0.719 T of CO2/ T of cement
(0.65 – 0.90 T of CO2)
• Per capita consumption 191 kg World average – 500 kg China – 1581 kg
• Produced 137 million tons of CO2

Indian scenario – 2050
The Indian Cement Industry
• Increase in population 1.2 billion to 1.7 billion
• Rapid urbanization 380 million to 675 million (UN DESA, 2011)
• GDP is expected to increase from USD 4,060 billion to USD 37,721 billion
‒ Large scale infrastructure development‒ Increased demand for concrete

The production process is highly optimised Around 80% of thermodynamic limit.it is estimated that < 2% further savings can be made here
Use of waste fuels, which can be > 80% reduces the demand for fossil fuels

Why India
Facilitate uptake of PC / calcined clay / limestone blends Create capacities for technology transfer to developing
countries Huge rise in consumption forecast in India
How to keep up with projected demand Only 25% of capacity needed in 2050 exists today
Need for range of blending materials High level producers in free market economy Excellent blend of research and application partnership 1st Country with national road map for sustainability
under Cement Sustainability Initiative, CSI of World Business Council for Sustainable Development, WBCSD Target for clinker factor 0.58 by 2030
