Quantifying Environmental Burdens of Plasters Based on Natural vs. Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) Gypsum

The ongoing global climate change and the associated environmental degradation pose a threat to Europe rest of world. Raw materials energy are required produce building materials, which used for construction purposes. Resulting buildings structures generate waste during construction, operation, demolition, they emit potentially harmful substances. Thus, key achieving goals is support low-emission technologies in sector, significantly impacting environment. In European Union, not yet subject mandatory sustainability assessment verification constancy performance (AVCP). Objective evaluation materials’ impact requires it be carried out based on production data an industrial scale. This article presents premixed gypsum-based plasters, commonly modern construction. Nine indicators (global warming potential (GWP), depletion stratospheric ozone layer (ODP), acidification (AP), eutrophication (EP), formation tropospheric (POCP), abiotic (ADP)-elements, ADP-fossil fuels, renewable primary resources (PERT), nonrenewable (PERNT)) gypsum plasters natural flue gas desulfurization (FGD) were estimated discussed. Knowledge products’ fundamental creating reliable databases. AVCP future will use collected voluntary evaluation.
