Cement plants of tomorrow will have to implement all CO 2 abatement and saving measures to the best extent possible. Reducing the clinker factor, optimising the reactivity of the clinker, substituting fossil fuels by alternative fuels and using alternative raw materials are pathways which will still play a growing role in future cement production.
