Adverse Environmental and Health Effects of Raw Materials Used in Portland cement Production
Silica, clay, shells, chalk, and limestone are some prominent raw materials that are used in the production of Portland cement. These elements have certain negative effects on human health and the environment. Inhalation of dust particles can irritate the throat and nose and can make breathing difficult. Exposure to Portland cement can result in various health issues, including asthma, burns, hypertension, and, sometimes, even lung cancer.
The manufacturing, mining, and transportation of Portland cement require a significant amount of heat energy that can result in air pollution. Therefore, governments around the world are implementing stringent rules and regulations for the production of Portland cement, which is adversely impacting expansion opportunities.
