The book examines life cycle assessment (LCA) as a key tool for assessing and reducing environmental impacts in the cement industry. LCA helps identify opportunities for improvement at every stage, from raw material extraction to waste management. The first chapter covers the fundamentals of LCA, defining key concepts such as life cycle inventory and environmental impact indicators. It highlights the importance of reliable data for relevant results and the need to constantly update methods and data. A comparison between LCA and environmental impact assessment (EIA) highlights their complementarity. The book also focuses on the cement manufacturing process, detailing each stage from extraction to clinker production while calling for critical reflection on future challenges for the industry.
