What is ISO/TR 27922 about?
ISO/TR 27922 is about carbon dioxide capture technologies in the cement industry. ISO/TR 27922 provides an overview of technologies that are under development to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) that is generated during cement manufacture. ISO/TR 27922 informs users about the different technologies, including the characteristics, maturity, and boundaries of these technologies.
ISO/TR 27922 addresses technologies for CO2 capture that have potential applications in the cement industry. ISO/TR 27922 applies to organizations involved in the cement industry and other stakeholders (example- policymakers).
Note: ISO/TR 27922 does not address CO2 transport, CO2 storage or CO2 utilization.
Who is ISO/TR 27922 for?
ISO/TR 27922 on carbon dioxide capture is useful for:
- Manufacturing units
- Power plants
- Environmental scientists
- Quality control personnel
- Health and safety authorities
Why should you use ISO/TR 27922?
Raw materials for concrete are abundant and available in most parts of the world. There is currently no other material that is available in the quantities necessary to meet the demand for buildings and infrastructure. However, the byproducts of cement manufacture, such as CO2, can harm the environment.
ISO/TR 27922 informs the cement industry and its stakeholders on CO2 capture technology options and other relevant aspects. To facilitate the assessment and comparison of the different CO2 capturing technologies, ISO/TR 27922 summarizes these technologies that are currently under development. ISO/TR 27922 lets you remain environmentally sustainable while running your business.
