The main sources of SCM are waste from industrial processes, among others, granulated blast furnace slag, pulverized fly ash, natural pozzolans (including agriculture ashes and silica fume), artificial pozzolans and limestone. The use of SCM has proven to impact on the cost of cement, due to the substitution of clinker in cement production [24].

Portland-limestone cement, or PLC, is engineered with a higher limestone content than portland cement to reduce the carbon footprint of concrete by about 10%. It performs just like the cement you're used to using, resulting in the same concrete you're used to having. The same specifications, the same mix design, now with a better carbon profile.

Producers know that replacing some of the clinker in portland cement with ground limestone offers benefits, the most important being that it reduces the embodied CO2 of the cement. Modifying a concrete mix design to replace higher carbon materials with lower carbon ingredients is an effective strategy to reduce its environmental footprint.
Get priceLimestone is a common type of carbonate sedimentary rock which is the main source of the material lime.It is composed mostly of the minerals calcite and aragonite, which are different crystal forms of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3).Limestone forms when these minerals precipitate out of water containing dissolved calcium.

Jun 28, 2022Type I/II cement is a clinker that is ground with up to 5% limestone and represents about 3-4% in the Colorado market. Type IL cement uses the same clinker but is ground with 5-15% limestone. The Type IL cements in Colorado typically have 10-12% limestone. The cement companies determined how much limestone to use based on performance.

This may be apocryphal, but it is said that Portland cement is so called because at the Great Exhibition of 1851 a block of concrete cast using the then relatively new cement compound was described as looking like Portland stone, and the name stuck. If this is true it was a major slur on Portland stone. The materials are different in so many ways.
