The use of clays as resource of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) for a new
generation of low-carbon cements and concretes is currently the subject of intense research …

The combined use of calcined clays and limestone in the ternary system LC3 enables up to
50% of clinker substitution without affecting the performance. Low grade calcined clays are …

Clays have the potential of being the most important supplementary cementitious material
for the future. The quality of calcination, which has a very important influence on the …

Limestone Calcined Clay Cements, LC3, allows CO2 emissions savings up to 40%. The
resulting binders have competitive mechanical performances after a week. However, the …

The disposal of dredged dam sediments often poses an environmental challenge. To
address this issue, this study aimed to explore the potential use of dredged dam sediments …

LC3 (limestone calcined clay cement) is poised to become the construction industry's future
as a so-called low-carbon-footprint cement. Research into this subject has determined the …

The main contributor to CO2 emissions in the cement industry is cement clinker, which
produces CO2 mainly through the burning of limestone in a kiln at approximately 1'450 C …

Introducción: La implementación a escala industrial de la producción de los cementos LC3 y
de la correspondiente adición mineral activa (LC2) se encuentra limitada porque no existe …

Five different natural clays from Portugal were calcined between 700-800 ºC and evaluated
with regard to their potential to be used as SCM in cementitious binders. Originally used for …
