Abstract: Cement production is the most important source of process-related CO2 emissions, which taking up nearly half of all process-related CO2 emissions. There are fossil fuel combustion and process related emissions in the cement industry. It is responsible for the most important part of human source CO2 emissions in the cement sector. In this study, CO2 emissions from the cement industries in the different regions of the turkey were detected as fossil fuel combustion and process related emissions.
