GCP-CEM: The Global Carbon Project CEMent-process emissions dataset This is an update of the dataset documented in: Andrew, R.M., 2019. Global CO2 emissions from cement production, 1928–2018. Earth System Science Data 11, 1675–1710. https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-11-1675-2019. Data in this release cover the period 1880–2022. Note that emissions from use of fossil fuels in cement production are not included in this dataset since they are usually included elsewhere in global datasets of fossil CO2 emissions. The process emissions in this dataset, which result from the decomposition of carbonates in the production of cement clinker, amounted to ~1.6 Gt CO2 in 2022, while emissions from combustion of fossil fuels to produce the heat required amounted to an additional ~1.0 Gt CO2 in 2022.
