Cimento LC³: uma revisão bibliográfica sistemática

Abstract

Cement is widely used in civil construction, but its production is one of the main sources of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions worldwide, causing significant environmental impacts. With the continuous growth of the cement industry, reducing CO2 emissions becomes an increasingly urgent challenge. To preserve the environment and mitigate these impacts, it is essential to adopt sustainable practices in the industry, such as the use of alternative raw materials, recycling of waste, reduction of energy consumption, and adoption of more efficient construction techniques. Research into new sustainable construction materials, including the partial replacement of clinker with supplementary cementitious materials, is fundamental. The development of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC³), which combines calcined clay and limestone, presents a promising and more sustainable alternative. The systematic literature review plays an important role in analyzing the existing scientific knowledge on LC³ and identifying gaps for future research.
