Pollution is a global phenomenon, which has been proven responsible for countless untold havoc to the environment and ecosystem at large resulting into global warming, climate change, deterioration of the ecosystem, and scarcity of resources. Industrial activities have as a whole been proven to be an ardent contributor to the global menace of environmental pollution worldwide, with a contribution percentage of 61%, and the cement industry in particular has been ranked as the third most polluting in the industrial sector. As countries look towards a more sustainable future, radical gains and changes have been necessitated in the industry, and though strides have been made in terms of energy consumption with 6% gains and emission reduction between 20-40% gains, yet pollution is still on the rise in the industry. This review paper delves into the subject matter and examines the underlying links between pollution rise and industrialization and then the cement industry; key correlations, the current and potential gains made, current and future projections and the factors facilitating the increased rate of pollution in the cement industry. |
