Green Revolution in Cement Industry through Nanotechnology

Abstract

In the current decade, construction and infrastructure are most promising sectors for investment because of it's every green growth and cement production is the main pillar of these trades. From 2010 to 2015, China and India are the largest cement producing countries with average production capacity of 2100 and 250 million metric tons per year, respectively. But with these, production of cement creates, the several environment issues, especially related to emission of large amounts of CO2 and that is in order to 5% of anthropogenic global CO2 emission. Here, it is revealed how nanotechnology may overcome above mention environmental issues with different novel approaches and techniques.

Keywords: Nanotechnology, nano cement, concrete technology
