(57) Improved cement for concrete is provided having reduced carbon footprint and improved mechanical properties. A limestone-free process of making the clinker provides a 70% reduction of carbon footprint vs. conventional manufacture of Portland cement. Curing the resulting cement in a temperature range from 80 °C to 100 °C advantageously enhances growth of fibrous minerals in the concrete.

Limestone pelletizing: A technical overview

In the international fertilizer industry, the terms “granulation” and “pelletizing” are used synonymously to describe the agglomeration of fine-grained materials. Accordingly, the resulting products are referred to as either “granules” or “pellets.” The choice of terminology in this publication follows the established and well-known SCARABAEUS pelletizing disc, and for consistency, the term “pelletizing” is used throughout the remainder of the article.
