State whether the following is true or false.
Every low-carbon cement can be adopted at the scale of Portland cement production.

  • A.False only at small scales
  • B.True
  • C.False
  • D.True only at large scales

Answer: C

Correct answer: False

Cement is made in billions of tonnes a year, so any substitute must have a raw material available at that scale and near the markets. Several low-carbon cements are excellent and limited to a fraction of that volume by supply - slag and fly ash by how much iron and coal are produced, sulphoaluminate cements by bauxite.
