Abstract
Cement production is responsible for 8% of global CO2 emissions. The scientific community is increasingly concerned about reducing these emissions and the pollution generated by industries and transportation. Although there is little specific research work in the cement sector aimed at cleaner and more sustainable production, interest in this topic is growing among scientists. To develop the work, the bibliometric review was carried out with the TEMAC Meta-Analytical Approach methodology, analyzing articles published from 2015 to 2023. Likewise, the VOSviewer software was used to identify the authors and the most cited topics in the scientific literature. As a result, an integrative model was validated and a Roadmap (ROADMAP) was developed for the reduction of CO2 in the cement industry, with the aim of achieving sustainability in the sector. The implementation of Industrial Symbiosis was proposed as a key strategy to promote cleaner and more efficient production in the use of resources. In addition, the application of digital twin technologies was explored as a fundamental part of Industry 4.0 in the cement industry supply chain, with the support of artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), the deep learning (Deep Learning) and radio frequency identification (RFID).
