| Use advice for data set | This data set is modelled with a system boundary of cradle to gate (modules A1–A3). This data set does not comprise life-cycle modules are not included in the study: A4 (transport to the construction site), A5 (construction/installation process), B (use stage), C (end-of-life stage, including C1–C4), and D (reuse, recovery and recycling potential) of the product | ||
| Technical purpose of product or process | Portland cement is a high-quality product finely ground from a mixture of clinker, limestone, and gypsum additives. It is widely used in key infrastructure projects such as bridges, airports, seaports, and high-rise buildings | ||

| Technology description including background system | The products considered are ASTM cement types (C150 and C595), produced at the Xuan Thanh Cement Plant in Ninh Binh, Vietnam. Production is based on modern FLSmidth rotary kiln technology, with three kilns (two at 12,500 t/day and one at 2,500 t/day), using anthracite coal as the main fuel and supported by a 43.6 MW waste heat recovery system. Locally sourced limestone, clay, gypsum, and additives such as slag and basalt are used as raw materials, with clinker produced on-site. Cement grinding is performed in ball mills and vertical roller mills, followed by storage in silos and dispatch in bags or bulk. The data set covers modules A1–A3 (cradle-to-gate), with upstream processes including raw material extraction, transport, and pre-processing | ||
