Clinker. Clinker is the backbone of cement production. It is essentially a mix of limestone and minerals that have been heated in a kiln and have been transformed by this heat. When limestone is converted to clinker, CO 2 is released (also known as process emissions). A substantial amount of heat is needed to start and sustain the chemical ...
