CEMEX has announced its participation in the Low Emissions Intensity Lime and Cement 2 (LEILAC 2) project, a research and innovation initiative aimed to decarbonise the cement production process.
The LEILAC 2 project is funded by the European Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. The project team comprises leading industrial, technology, and research & development partners.
CEMEX had a very active participation in LEILAC 1, working with the partners to develop the novel direct separation of process carbon emissions derived from the clinker/cement manufacture. The highly concentrated CO
2 resulting from the technology can then be easily handled via capture and/or storage. Process emissions are roughly 60% of the direct CO
